A new Thotcrime album, “Connection Anxiety“, will be out on August 16th through Prosthetic Records. The international cybergrind outfit have shared a pair of singles from the effort, “The Wrong Way” and “Behind The Cracks” in advance thus far.
The band’s producer Les Beaux Plastiques commented:
“When we started working on a follow up to ‘D1G1T4L_DR1FT‘, we decided that we wanted to explore our favourite aspects from our past while exploring more of where we were at the time. All the guitars are real, all the drums were written by our drummer, the mixing and production has taken a big step up, and there’s a lot more 90’s and 00’s rave elements, to inform a more unified direction, while still maintaining the Thotcrime ethos of chaos and genrefluidity.”
Vocalist Haley Elizabeth added:
“‘Connection Anxiety‘ is a lot of things. This record feels like a proclamation that we’re holding out for hope. I hope the record is as fun as it is proactive. I hope that our third entry solidifies our existence in a world that is constantly changing. I also hope that our fans listening to this record resonate with it’s message: ‘a better world is possible, and it’s okay that change happens even if it’s scary.'”
