Pupil Slicer is here to show you what would happen is shoegaze got into a fight with bands like Deafheaven and Botch. The result is the band's new single "Blossom," whose music makes six minutes fly by and will have you scrambling for the repeat button at the end. It's really, really good. Doubly so thanks to the music video magic of David Gregory.
"Blossom is the culmination of 2 years spent with razor focus on crafting a journey like no other," said vocalist and guitarist Kate Davies. "We are incredibly proud of the feats we have achieved on our sophomore album, building upon the experience and feedback from our debut to further break down the walls between metal, hardcore, shoegaze, electronic music and pop.
"We have delivered the most concentrated Pupil Slicer experience yet. A hard sci-fi/cosmic horror concept album, the story told across Blossom draws on some of my favourite media to craft these 10 tracks where instrumental, lyrical and visual elements have been cohesively refined to serve the world I have created.
"We are introducing the world of Blossom via the title track, the final point beyond time and space, a nexus of everything that could have been and a vantage point into everything that came before."
Pupil Slicer will release their new record Blossom on June 2. Pre-orders are available here and you can catch the band at one of the below dates with Boris.
