U.K. mathcore trio and Revolver HQ favorites Pupil Slicer have leveled up big time on their sophomore album, Blossom, expanding on the head-spinning sound of their 2021 debut, Mirrors, with elements of grunge, shoegaze, electronic music and more.
So far, fans have gotten to hear the LP's alt-rock-inflected title track, the much heavier rager "No Temple" and, premiering today (May 11th), the fiery, dynamic new single "Momentary Actuality." The song arrived accompanied by a cinematic music video that continues Blossom's cosmic horror rock opera storyline. Watch and listen above.
Pupil Slicer commented in a joint statement: "'Momentary Actuality' serves as the starting point for the story of Blossom and also encapsulates a musical mission statement for the album, the song encompasses a broad range of styles that are found on the rest of Blossom.
"This song really showcases our progression as musicians on a technical as well as compositional level, with a lot of care taken to craft a very satisfying structure to the over-the-top riffs and breakdowns we've come to be known for."
Blossom is due out June 2nd through Prosthetic Records and available for pre-order now. You can pick it up on limited-edition "molten gold" vinyl at Revolver's shop.
