deathcrash Share New Single ‘Duffy's’
New album Less due 17th March via untitled (recs).
On March 17th, London slowcore band deathcrash will release their new album, Less, via untitled (recs). Recorded at the UK’s most remote studio in the Outer Hebrides, Less is a statement in reduction that proves to be as powerful as it is tender.
deathcrash has previously shared the melancholic and explosive single, ‘Empty Heavy’, and now returns with a moment of peaceful respite in the form of their new single, ‘Duffy’s’. This track explores patience and letting go with triumphant melodies and harmonies that will linger in listeners’ minds and hearts long after the song has ended.
Bassist Patrick Fitzgerald says, “It alternates between very sparse slowcore sections and more open, catchy melodies and riffs. It’s not in a rush, but it does give in to something, a lightness maybe."
Speaking of the accompanying video, he says it, “aims to capture this lightness, and the sometimes fun and sometimes frustrating process of making and recording music together. I’d been doing a lot of filming of the band, and I brought up a camera to Scotland to document the process. Joe helped out filming when I wasn’t available and I had all this footage for a longer project. It only came to us later down the line that it might be fun to cut together a more DIY and personal video to Duffy’s, one which showed us a bit more."
