Chicago-based band Slow Pulp have announced their second studio album Yard, out September 29 via ANTI-. Alongside the LP announcement, they’ve shared dates for a North American tour and a new single. Yard will be the band’s first LP recorded together, and the record’s formative efforts and thematics trace the blurring outlines of isolation and togetherness.
“Slugs” follows its single predecessor “Cramps” and is gentle and insistent, a sugared, summery indie track made unique by blink-and-you’ll-miss-it glitches and a distorted backing track. “‘Slugs,’ put simply, is about falling in love in the summertime,” frontwoman Emily Massey notes. In its dainty, melodic aberrations, Yard‘s second offering encapsulates the terror of that feeling as well as the joy.
