Deep Living

Human Worth are proud to present the staggering new album from Lower Slaughter, with a portion of profits donated to charity. Since their last full-length release back in 2019, Sussex noise-makers Lower Slaughter have spent several years quietly simmering and regrouping behind closed doors, plowing through a reshuffle of personnel, but always keeping a constant eye on the future; working sporadically on new material and focusing towards the next phase of the group’s existence. 
 
Following the departure of long-time vocalist Sinead Young, their surprise return in 2024 saw the remaining former members unveil a new line-up, welcoming James Gardiner to the fold on bass, and with previous bass player Barney Wakefield switching over to vocal duties. Upon Gardiner’s addition, a considerably more expansive sound has emerged, bringing the band’s now recognised output of what the Quietus once referred to as ‘lurching noise-rock’ to new exciting heights, all the while set against an equally more confident and expansive dynamic, reinforced by the chemistry of Graham Hebson and Jon Wood, who remain tighter than ever on drums and guitar respectively. 
 
Their brand new album Deep Living, recorded and mixed by long- time collaborator and prolific music engineer Wayne Adams (Petbrick/Big Lad) and mastered by Sam Grant (Pigsx7/Rubber Oh), sees the group firing on all cylinders and kicking the door open with new business to set! 
 
Brighton based charitable label Human Worth have pressed up a limited edition run of stunning ‘Deluxe Deep Blue’ Eco Mix vinyl, housed in a beautiful sleeve featuring the photography of Nick Gripton. 10% of all sales proceeds donated to charity The PANDAs Foundation – a trusted support service for families suffering with perinatal mental illness.
