Following the recent release of their acclaimed new full-length You Could Do It TonightCouch Slut reemerge with a remastered, 10 year anniversary reissue of their debut album My Life As A Woman incoming December 6 via Brutal Panda Records

The self-produced album, originally released on Oct 13th, 2014, made an immediate splash in the underground due in large part to the band name and it’s controversial, confrontational artwork, but it was the music that took people by storm as written in the Hank Shteamer penned essay “Why Couch Slut Is Heavier Than Metal”.

Out-of-print for years now, the 10 year anniversary reissue has been remastered by Matt Colton (Aphex Twin, Sunn O))), George Michael) and features the “shocking” original artwork tucked away safely under a censored paper bag slipcover. Along with expanded album art, the reissue is packaged with a nearly 40 page zine, written and compiled by Amy Mills with additional liner notes from the band and renowned music writer Hank Shteamer, chronicling their early years of cacophony. 

Pre-Order My Life As A Woman (10 Year Anniversary) Reissue on LP/CD/CS/Digital via Brutal Panda Records here and for Bandcamp Friday here.  The band will return to Europe for their first tour of the region after turning heads at Roadburn Festival earlier this year with a blistering performance of the album on the day of its release. Additional dates will be announced next week.
