How many times have you heard a band described as genuinely “unsettling” to listen to? In all honesty, this scribe in question has probably described a few in writing as such. Well, more than likely those acts cannot come even close to the nauseating realism, punishing content and sonic barrage of New York’s Couch Slut over the last few years.
NYC’s resident misfits Couch Slut’s new full-length album You Could Do It Tonight is out April 19th, 2024 on Brutal Panda Records. Today, the band shares the official lyric video for “The Donkey (Abridged).” The video was created by Frank Huang (Maximum Volume Silence) and features additional footage captured by occasional Couch Slut collaborator Davindar Singh from a haunted house in Thailand, along with special guest appearances from guitarist Amy Mills’ personal doll collection. Watch the video and preorder the album here.Continue reading →
