Slow Pulp – the Chicago-via-Madison quartet composed of vocalist Emily Massey, guitarist/producer Henry Stoehr, bassist Alex Leeds, and drummer Teddy Mathews – today release their new album Yard on ANTI-.

Following a wide-ranging breadth of singles – the electric ‘Cramps,’ syrupy lead single ‘Slugs,’ sun-kissed radio anthem ‘Doubt’ and the contemplative ‘Broadview’ – Yard is already being hailed as the band’s best work to date.

Building upon the sticky hooks and dreamy rock seen in Slow Pulp’s earlier music, Yard crafts together a bigger sound. Through listless guitar, a raw-to-the-bone piano ballad, and belt-along worthy pop-punk, Slow Pulp tackles themes of isolation and the process of learning to be comfortable with yourself, along with the importance of learning to trust, love, and lean on others. The result is a lightning-in-a-bottle synthesis of what has made Slow Pulp one of the most beloved indie groups in recent memory.

Across Yard, Slow Pulp nestles comfortably into pockets of nuance, impressions, contradictions – sonics and lyrics finessed together to bottle the specific tension of a feeling you’ve never quite been able to find the right words for. Perhaps this spawns from the band’s own shared history and chemistry; in various ways, the four of them grew up – are still growing up – together.
