Slaughterhouse with “State Of Emergency” to Sneek

Slaughterhouse return with “State Of Emergency,” a furious track that exemplifies the band’s sonic savagery and icy demeanor, suffused with the shocking intensity of slasher cinema.

Slaughterhouse projects a reference to the past while creating nuanced and modern textures with depth well beyond that of a four-piece. “State Of Emergency” barrels forward with an unstoppable momentum that completely overpowers with reckless impunity. Eddie Cairns and Nick Aguilar trade percussive blows like a pair of pugilists locked in mortal combat, drums and bass refusing to cede in the slightest under the pummeling torrent, egged on by Taylor Ramirez’s crystalline sharp fretwork. Meriel O’Connell unleashes a staccato vocal blitzkrieg that moves with whiplash ferocity, a siren unhinged and howling amidst the unrelenting maelstrom. Uncanny in their ability to wield raw aggression with surgical precision, Slaughterhouse imbue their sound with a pervasive John Carpenter-esque sense of terrifying unease. “State Of Emergency” purely embodies these qualities, stalking menacingly from the fringes of rational consciousness and inspiring an adrenaline shot of animalistic anxiety in response to the band’s sonic assault.

In August Slaughterhouse will be supporting Mad Caddies:
