Our Take

London-based alt-rockers SLACKERS have made a bold statement with their latest release "Self-Medication." This album is a wild rollercoaster ride through the highs and lows of modern life, with a healthy dose of self-deprecation thrown in for good measure.

From the opening track "Procrastination Blues," SLACKERS set the tone for the album with their infectious energy and tongue-in-cheek lyrics. Lead singer Johnny Slack's distinctive vocals shine on tracks like "Existential Crisis in C Minor," where he bemoans the struggles of adulting in a world gone mad.

The band's musical versatility is on full display throughout the album, with hints of punk, folk, and even a touch of ska thrown into the mix. Tracks like "Anxiety Attack" showcase SLACKERS' ability to seamlessly blend genres while still staying true to their unique sound.

While "Self-Medication" is undeniably fun and catchy, it also packs an emotional punch. The poignant ballad "Burnout" delves into the darker side of mental health struggles, proving that SLACKERS are not afraid to tackle tough subject matter with sensitivity and depth.

Overall, "Self-Medication" is a triumph for SLACKERS, showcasing their talent and creativity in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. This is an album that will make you laugh, cry, and maybe even rethink your life choices – all in the span of 45 minutes. Highly recommended for fans of quirky, heartfelt music with a side of British charm.
