Debut album, “They Slime! They Ooze! They Kill!”, out on April 19th!
SLUG GORE is a death-grind band based in Ravenna, Italy. The band’s sound is the perfect fusion of European grindcore influences, American hardcore and touches of death metal and slam.
The concept behind their imagery follows themes such as Kaiju (from Godzilla to Ultraman), B-Movies (to which they have dedicated songs like “Underground Giant Death Machine” and “The Deadly Spawn”), monster movies, gore and horror.
The project was born at the end of 2022 with the intention of creating something new and rule-free. Elements from various scenes and musical tastes have found a common ground in a dynamic and uncompromising death-grind.
In their first year, the band quickly built a big fanbase, playing over 30 shows in Italy, sharing the stage with major names such as Meshuggah, Carcass, Soulfly, Brujeria, Cripple Bastards, Possessed, Mortuary Drape, Gatecreeper, Asphyx, and many others when performing at various important Italian festivals such as Dissonance, Luppolo In Rock, Frantic, Venezia Hardcore and Built To Blast Festival. They also completed an Italian mini tour with Party Cannon.
After receiving great feedback with the release of an EP in February 2023 (“Extraterrestrial Gastropod Mollusc”), and a single in May (“Mucus Chainsaw”), SLUG GORE are now ready to release their first album.
