Slung are excited to announce their debut album ‘In Ways’ will be released via Fat Dracula on 2nd May. They’ve also
announced a tour to celebrate the full length, and revealed its first single, the trauma-fueled, ribcage-rattling ‘Laughter’. Vocalist Katie
Oldham says “This song is about a face-off that’s been a long time coming, and the difficult relationships we can have with members
of our family, especially our parents. When we’re children we’re so desperate for our parents' attention and approval that their
dismissal or rejection can feel agonising. With an emotionally absent parent, trying desperately to earn love or consideration from
someone who isn’t capable of giving it can be so destructive. This hurt can often develop into resentment as we age and we may
even later villainise this person, wanting to fight, confront, defeat them.”
With a debut duo of singles at the tail end of 2024, Slung’s sounds piqued interest among discerning ears across the industry and
internet. They’ve also been working hard in the real, physical world, earning a legion of fans the old fashioned way, by hitting the
road hard before they’d even released a note of music. They’ll continue this with a tour to celebrate the album’s release this spring.
Details below.
Slung’s debut album is a collaborative combustion of its members’ experiences, circumstances and supreme musicianship. Their sonic
universe - comprising the power of guitarist Ali Johnson’s incendiary riffs, vocalist Katie Oldham’s enviable dynamic and tonal range,
bassist Vlad Matveikov’s undulating, yet grounding basslines and drummer Ravi Martin’s expert rhythmic punctuation - is a veritable
musical supernova. Influences within the Slung camp are far reaching, with the band’s members referencing artists from Deftones
and Baroness, to Wednesday and MJ Lenderman, to Queens of the Stone Age and even a sprinkling of Chappell Roan and Fleetwood
Mac.
