Slaves’ new album is done, and it’s coming out soon

Slaves have finished their new album and it’s coming out “soon”.

Speaking backstage at Latitude before their set on the 6Music stage on Friday evening (15th July), guitarist Laurie Vincent told NME that the new album was going to be “heavy” – that rock ‘n roll, eh?

He went on: “It’s [got] some very old Slaves, some last album Slaves, some new stuff. It’s a bit of everything… It’s more developed that the first album, there’s more of a landscape. It’s heavy, lyrically and how it sounds. Some of it is like how ‘Sugar Coated’ on the first album is really punky, although some is the total opposite.”
