Slowdive present their new track, "the slab"
"the slab" is taken from their highly anticipated fifth album, everything is alive.
Following on from slowdive’s most recent singles — "kisses" and "skin in the game" — "the slab" continues previewing the sonic breadth of everything is alive.
“This is the heaviest track on the record and as the name suggests we wanted it to feel like a big slab of music. We wanted it to feel very dense," says vocalist/guitarist Neil Halstead.
In conjunction, Dead Oceans announces a series of listening sessions in New York and Los Angeles where attendees will get a first listen of everything is alive in Dolby Atmos® and in London with L-Acoustics Creations for an immersive sound experience throughout the new album. Fans will be able to enter a sweepstakes for a chance to attend.
"the slab" is out now. Slowdive's fifth studio album, everything is alive, arrives on 1 September via Dead Oceans, and is available to pre-order.
