The debut EP from Slate, Deathless, out May 17th on Brace Yourself Records. Following the force of their introductory singles 'Tabernacl' and 'St Agatha', the band return with an invitation to explore their landscape of violent poetry and gothic propulsion to the fullest extent yet. Produced by long-time collaborator Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard's Tom Rees.
Emerging from the depths of Cardiff’s burgeoning music scene and heirs to their country’s lineage of storytellers, Slate are barely touching their twenties, but together, they have command of post-punk which rings with the gravitas of a death knell; a grasp of atmosphere and melody which touches on the ethereal.
Deathless is their most ambitious act of storytelling so far. Recorded in one take, the narrative of its six tracks takes place within a single room - or, perhaps, one mind.
I recommended this EP on my New Music page:

Unlike anything I've heard before in it's own distinction. Raw, heavy and ultimately cathartic to listen to. Love finding new music that speaks to a part of me that I didn't know was there, which Chalk's discography is a keen example of. Wonderful local talent I wish I had been recommended sooner. mattdav
