NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – May 5, 2017

 

For fans of Gojira, Sikth, Meshuggah, Dillinger Escape Plan, Between The Buried And Me

Out Now! Isolated Small Town Tech Groove Metal SLAGDUSTER’s “Deadweight”

Inspired by such giants as Goijira. Sikth, Meshuggah, Dillinger Escape Plan, Between The Buried And Me, SLAGDUSTER’s sound can be best described as “progressive, groovy, creative, unique, heavy”.

Isolated in the small town of Grand Forks, BC, SLAGDUSTER present their next offering “Deadweight” to follow their 2010 debut album ‘Nature.Humanity.Machine’. Unleashed on May 5th, the album features nine tracks that give a variety a flavor with its ripping riffs and tremolo melodies to soft transitional parts and psychedelic interludes on top of constant heaviness and groove.

“Naturally our sound has come a long way since our debut release in 2010. The music is more complex, and much more developed, still heavy, but even more groove based. Listeners can expect to be challenged by focusing on the compositions, or lost in the musical landscape. All nine of these tracks have been very slowly and carefully crafted. No songs were scrapped, but all were completely revamped continuously for years. We put way more effort into collaborative songwriting, which has significantly advanced our original sound.” says vocalist Shane Sherman.

“Slagduster deliver grooved rhythms, technical riffing, odd time signatures and pummeling vocals on new single “Peeping Ron”” – The Sludgelord

“9 songs long, it doesn’t have time to get old or run out of imagination, something it has plenty of! Ending on the best song of the album, Untouchable. The ingredients combining here to give an exciting plate of metal that ensures you’re not going to be forgetting about Deadweight anytime soon.” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“witness their antics and groove metal.” – Beatroute (Live review Armstrong Metalfest 2016)
