Slothrust have announced a new album and have fans excited as the band has labeled it as ‘dystopian theatre rock’. ‘What They Grow In The Garden’ will release Sept. 18th on Equal Vision Records. The band has also released the first new singles from the album with ‘Ring The Bell’ and ‘00101001’ out now.
We really want people to take away a message from this album of self-liberation amidst the flickers of seemingly inescapable dread,” Leah Wellbaum and Will Gorin of Slothrust said. “Despite the permeating blue light of the external world, it is still possible to find your freedom and identify your core truths if you go within.”
