It’s been a couple years since Slothrust’s debut, “Of Course You Do”. That grungy instant classic made them a band to follow an put in my must see lists, the band’s latest release is looking to repeat or better that offering. “Everyone Else” improves in almost every conceivable way .
Leah Wellbaum’s guitar sounds better, the lyrics are better, the overall sound of the album is more cohesive and accessible literally every part of Everyone Else seems to be prepared in order to launch the band into the mainstream. That’s a shame and a blessing for music fans. Most of what gets written and talked about amongst blogs, and the major publications, follows the trend ie sounds like etc etc, So if you’re down for something new Slothrust is going to be the band to check out. It’s been a long wait for something new from the band, as Wellbaum kept busy with other pursuits. A couple singles have already been released to get you excited. None of them are my favorite from the record, but of the ones out there for you to hear now, I have to say “Like A Child Hiding Behind Your Tombstone”
October 27th Everyone Else will be available for all to hear.
