Slowdive Is Giving Off ‘Dense’ Energy On ‘The Slab,’ A New Song From Their Upcoming Album

Slowdive is giving fans an idea of what to expect from their next album, Everything Is Alive. The band’s latest song, “The Slab,” opens with an energetic guitar that builds anticipation before pulling listeners into a hypnotic instrumental trance.

“This is the heaviest track on the record, and as the name suggests we wanted it to feel like a big slab of music,” the band’s vocalist and guitarist Neil Halstead shared in a statement. “We wanted it to feel very dense.”

In addition to the song, fans in London, New York, and Los Angeles will have an opportunity to hear Slowdive’s album in full, through special listening parties in Dolby Atmos. Winners will be selected through free sweepstakes.
