PUPIL SLICER

THEIR NAME MAY make you do a bit of a sick in your mouth and their music is utterly fucking terrifying, but Pupil Slicer have gone and created the most exciting debut album in living memory. The London-based trio only formed three years ago, and almost by accident, as vocalist/guitarist Kate Davies explains.

“At first, it was all just a bit of fun. I just wrote some horrible death metal riffs that didn’t fit with the band we were in at the time,” she explains. “We really like, and with us it’s Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge and Rolo Tomassi, those kinds of bands. We figured we can basically write whatever we like and give it a shot.”
