Slower announce new album ‘Rage And Ruin’


SLOWER have announced a new album!

Titled Rage And Ruin, the upcoming album from the doom metal project (that features members of FU MANCHUYEAR OF THE COBRAMONOLORD) is the quick-fire follow-up to January’s self-titled debut album, and is scheduled to be released in November this year, via Heavy Psych Sounds.

Speaking about the upcoming album, guitarist Bob Balch says “when we started this album, the original intention was to cover SLAYER‘s EP Haunting The Chapel in its entirety. We started with Chemical Warfare then went on to Haunting The Chapel, but once we got to Captor Of Sin we realized that tune didn’t want to be slowed down at all. So we started writing our own songs and I’m glad we did. The result is Rage And Ruin. Two sides with SLAYER songs in the middle, bookended by SLOWER originals. We are super proud of this record and can’t wait for you to hear it!”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new song from the upcoming album; Hellfire. Speaking about the new song, vocalist/bassist Amy Tung Barrysmith says, “when we started writing originals, I wanted to try to keep to the same themes that SLAYER wrote about. There are a lot of songs about war in SLAYER’s songs and when I heard the Hellfire riff, the first image that came to mind was just this bright red fire raining down from the heavens. With all of the upheaval in the world today, it seemed like a fitting topic. What makes this song slightly unique, though, is that I came up with the title, Hellfire, first from that initial image I had in my head. Writing the lyrics after that was easy.”
