The debut album from Freak Slug, ‘I Blow Out Big Candles’, is to be released as a Long Playing record on March the 7th. It has a bit added to the title, ‘(with a cherry on top’). That cherry is the 2 extra tracks you get, ‘Liquorice’ and ‘Killer’.You can watch/listen to ‘Liquorice’ below. If that is not exciting enough, there are a whole host of dates to get to see Freak Slug in action. So, order the LP, grab yourself a ticket! There is a recent DeClunk Q & A with Freak Slug here..
