Slug - Swingers


Year: 1992
Label: Magnatone
This is a collection of singles and ep material from Slug, a triple bass wielding art/noise beast from Los Angeles. They take their cues from Swans, Einsturzende Neubauten, Head Of David, Birthday Party...stuff that doesn't usually get played at the cookout. Also, if it helps, they have split 7"s with Cherubs and Unsane, so they keep good company. 
It's heavy, dense, messy, throbbing, and hateful (that's what she said), which is pretty much why you're here right?
