Bringing a technical touch to grunge-tinged garage rock, Brooklyn via Boston trio Slothrust offers a lot that a listener can latch onto. Lead singer, Leah Wellbaum, delivers her lyrics with angst, passion, and subtle sarcasm that permeates each song distinctly. Humor and dark themes coalesce seamlessly as the band’s personality is put on full display in front of spot-on musicianship. While the band has been a slow burn in terms of popularity, their 2013 album ‘Of Course You Do‘ reached many hearts, displaying the talent, charm, and uniqueness of this group. After three years, they are due for a new record. – Lee Ackerley
