Couch Slut's new full-length You Could Do It Tonight has finally landed today via Brutal Panda Records. The album was recorded amidst the filth of NYC with Uniform's Ben Greenberg and mastered by Matt Colton at Metropolis Studios in London, and Couch Slut subverts the paradigm and ups the ante in every imaginable way across nine vignettes of perverse, true-to-life storytelling layered over the band's singular, dragged-through-the-mud songcraft. This is a depraved style of noise rock that will scare the living shit out of you.
Today, the band has revealed a music video for the album's third single "Wilkinson's Sword." Couch Slut vocalist Megan Ostrosits comments, “Established in England in 1772, Wilkinson Sword has a long history and is recognized for its high-quality shaving equipment. Over the years, the company has introduced innovative designs and technologies, including the first stainless steel razor blade."
Additionally, Couch Slut are performing You Could Do It Tonight in its entirety this Saturday at Roadburn— catch them at 1:50 at The Terminal.
Couch Slut have played a veritable strain of drug-fueled, incendiary noise rock since 2013. Led by Megan Osztrosits' infernal roar and subversive, vitriolic lyrics, the quintet returns with their fourth full-length opus You Could Do It Tonight, just in time for America's only holiday that matters...4/20.
With ten full years of pain and suffering under their proverbial belt, along with three prior full-length albums My Life As A Woman (2014), Contempt (2017), and Take A Chance On Rock ‘n’ Roll (2020), Couch Slut sounds more urgent, threatening, nasty and despondent than ever, and You Could Do It Tonight is the perfect soundtrack for 2024.
Order You Could Do It Tonight via Brutal Panda Records or on Bandcamp.
