Cybergrind outfit Thotcrime (not to be confused with Thoughtcrimes) have newly signed with Prosthetic Records and will have their sophomore album “D1G1T4L_DR1FT” out via the label on October 28th. The lead single, “Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria“, can be found below and is complemented by an official music video.
The band’s member/producer K. Salmon commented:
“The new album represents us moving into new territories musically. Over the last few split releases we’ve been exploring the world of heavy guitar music and electronic music a lot further outside the field of the sounds on our debut album. We really feel that this album brings together all those new sounds in a powerful and cohesive way.”
Meanwhile, guitarist Malady Jane had the following to say about this first single:
“‘Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria‘ shows the sort of approach we’ve taken with our new album, drawing from our loves of both heavy guitar-oriented music and more electronic pop and dance styles. Lyrically, the song deals with the way that neurodivergence and mental illness can make you feel the world is out to get you.”
