gazzo Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 April 3rd we release Reel / Pale skin 7” through @holyroarrecords. One time pressing limited to 1000 copies. With this 7”, we wanted to give something back and have chosen to donate part of the proceeds to a few local charities that support the less fortunate and their fight against poverty. Preorders start on March 16th! We headed into the studio, in between our tours with pelican and soft kill, recording ‘Reel’ and ‘Pale Skin’. The lyrics on both tracks share the pain of withdrawal, the trials and tribulations we face when coming to terms with the need for change in order to step away from addictions, habits or behaviours that cause us harm. Whether it be something as plainly, blatantly obvious as the need to recover from alcohol or substance abuse, or a habit that appears so socially accepted that you may not even realise it is taking control and limiting your potential, such as addiction to social media, a problematic relationship with food or always wanting to please people and putting your own (mental) health in second place. It’s easy to take for granted but everyone is going through something in their lives that can make them feel unhappy and it may be harder to admit you need help for the smaller stuff. What I think I’m trying to say is, be kind to yourself and look out for one another. Stills taken from the upcoming video by Bobby Pook. Be sure to catch us on one of our upcoming tours.

N8TRU Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Awesome! Hopefully Deathwish can get some copies @CalebDW (I know Caleb hasn't been on here in a while but it's worth a shot) Hey @gazzo do you want to make this an official Slow Crush thread kind of like the Nine Inch Nails thread since we've now covered Aurora, Ease and the 7"?

gazzo Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 Normally death wish will get them cause on the new Holy Roar site, when you change it to Usa, it automatically redirects to the DW site. And @N8TRU, sure. N8TRU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 As always, we love to give exclusives for releases that aren't part of the subscription - so with this release there will be a black variant limited to 100, available EXCLUSIVELY for subscribers to purchase.

gazzo Posted March 16, 2020 Author Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) Preorders are live (although DW not yet it seems) 800 x Eco vinyl 100 x Black vinyl 100 x Mr Blue sky (Deathwish Inc. exclusive) eco variant edit; more info about both charities they are supporting with half of the proceeds going to them With this 7”, we wanted to give something back and have chosen to donate part of the proceeds to a few local charities that support the less fortunate and their fight against poverty. The first charity is DoucheFLUX who seek to restore people's energy, dignity and self-esteem, so that they can start rebuilding their own future by escaping homelessness or avoiding a return to it. The second, BruZelle, helps collect and distribute sanitary towels as well as raising awareness, communicating and educating about menstrual poverty – having to make the choice between general basic necessities, to survive, over menstrual protection.

qula Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 do you folks think it that some copies od /100 deathwish variant will find its way to deathwish.eu? 23$ for a shipping of a single 7' to europe is a sad record i think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am afraid not. Think your best option is contacting Isa or Jelle from the band, but i think they are only receiving 2 variants. No idea 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea 🤷🏻♂️ thanks for the info, thair bandcamp offers eco and black versions, although the black one redirects you to the holy roar subscription purchase...so looks like only /800 version from them. Thats a bummer to be in time to purchase /100 version but resign because of the costs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted March 16, 2020 Author Share Posted March 16, 2020 Yeah the /100 black is hr subscriber variant. But if you are subscribed you get 10% discount on the other one 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the band, and 100 copies is a very small number, so I just bought regardless. Not cheap, but worth it IMO. gazzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazzo Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 23 hours ago, ethereal said: I was referring to what the actual variant is? sounds like a recycled/random color yeah it's made with the leftovers in between 2 pressings. So it kinda depends on what they are doing. But if you look at their instagram stories you can see it ethereal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Ofcourse I am biased as fucking but loving the 2 new singles. Even dreamier and the ending on Reel is just so darn good. Also loving the Fact that Isa's vocals on Pale Skin are little bit more prominent. N8TRU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazzo Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 if you're interested in an Aurora test press. I would advise you to visit their Bandcamp on Friday 🙂 mrewest and whoa 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 Our single Reel has been out for 4 weeks! Thanks for all the love. Still some vinyl copies available. Since bandcamp is waiving all their fees today we’ve decided to put up two of the test presses of Aurora. Helping to cover expenses lost on cxld tours. We’ll put two of them up on different times during the day to give everyone one a fair shot keeping time zones in mind. We’ll ask a correct amount comparable to production cost. Follow us on bandcamp to get a notification when they go up. https://slowcrush.bandcamp.com/merch (everything priced in euro goes directly to the band) N8TRU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzo Posted July 23, 2020 Author Share Posted July 23, 2020 Slow Crush did a collaboration with Lost Century Kid to bring 2 new versions of Aurora songs. Thing is gonna be released digitally and it oooooozes 80's synths, so kinda shoewave or synth gaze or whatevs I like it. mostly Isa's vocals being more upfront N8TRU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
