You’re never going to fully figure out Slothrust, but rest assured, it’s well worth the effort... the LA-by-way-of-New York power trio is a juggernaut of cannonball riffs and lyrical intrigue. 
“Listen to songs by Slothrust, and you'll hear aggressive sounds that hearken back to early-'90s rock bands like Nirvana and Dinosaur Jr. Listen more closely, and you'll also hear elements of the blues that the band’s members learned when they met in their college's jazz program."
"The Pact, the fiery alt-rockers’ fourth LP... which was produced by Billy Bush in Los Angeles, was recorded with the confidence that comes with not being crunched for time... a true “studio album.”
LA-by-way-of-NYC band, Slothrust, just announced 16 brand new US tour dates in April and May, adding to their extensive run from now until the end of May. Now in Europe, the band will be back to the states on Febuary 7, visiting Scranton, PA. Slothrust will be playing three festivals in May: Shaky Knees (May 5) in Atlanta, Epicenter (May 10) in Charlotte and Bottlerock (May 25) in Napa.

The band's recently released their fourth LP, The Pact, which showcases their dynamic evolution through experimentation and exploration. With millions of streams on Spotify, it's clear that new fans are joining the Slothrust movement, and the band's influence has expanded drastically since their first album in 2014. As Billboard puts it, "You’re never going to fully figure out Slothrust, but rest assured, it’s well worth the effort."

A thunderously versatile and agile band, Slothrust's live show is driving much of the band's widening success. Fans blissfully revel in guitar epics from the band's own growing catalog, and a selection of inventive covers ("Baby, One More Time by Britney Spears and "Sex and Candy" by Marcy Playground, for example). Get a taste of their live show by checking out their Audiotree session, and stay tuned for more announcements.
