British mathcore outfit Pupil Slicer have issued a new double single comprised of their tracks “Heather” and “Black Scrawl“. The band’s vocalist/guitarist Kate Davies had the following to share about the meaning behind these two cuts, which portend what else the group have up their sleeves.
“These tracks explore both my own experiences as a non-binary autistic person, as well as the more generalized treatment of many kinds of minorities as a whole.
In ‘Heather‘, the unique experience of your existence being used as a political tool and your rights cast aside for the goals of others, whilst ‘Black Scrawl‘ deals more with the self-destructive elements of trying to just keep yourself together and overcome the sorrow that comes with such an immense amount of hatred that you will never be able to escape, let alone dealing with your own self doubts and flaws as a person.
I’m really happy to be writing more from my heart on this new material and I don’t want anyone mistaking what Pupil Slicer stands for – this is Trans Inclusive Radical Hatred.”
Recording sessions took place under Joe Clayton at No Studio, with Davies adding of the end result:
“This is the most collaborative effort we’ve had as a band. Every one of us – myself, Josh, and Luke Booth, who joined us for the first time – poured our hearts into this. Each of us contributed to crafting the strongest vision and the best music possible for the new era of Pupil Slicer.”
