The Anomalys Share “Despair” From Upcoming “Down The Hole” Album

For a band that took the equivalent of three presidential cycles to release a new record, The Anomalys didn’t waste any momentum or ideas releasing this one. Two years after their triumphant return with the Glitch album, these supercharged Dutch-Franco surf punks are storming back with their latest release, Down The Hole. With the hypnotic reverb heavy Anxiety single already released, Slovenly Recordings are offering up the opposite tempo with the album’s second single, Despair.

After taking a break after touring in support of Glitch, The Anomalys reconvened in the Tolousian confines of Swampland Studios and wrote eight dark and apolitical tracks on the spot, they then ripped through the sessions like a bat out of hell frantically looking for peaceful pastures, only to land in a time fraught with end-of-times tensions. Down The Hole will be released on vinyl and through streaming platforms on September 6th with pre-orders available through Slovenly Recordings.

“We entered the studio after a pretty bleak chapter in our lives and channeled some serious anger and frustration into these songs. So, this record hits differently than our last one, and musically, we felt we needed to go on some lengthier instrumental adventures. I say that experiment worked out since Looch and my guitar styles became more familiar to each other by this time.” (vocalist & guitarist Bone)
