SLIME CITY

Existential nerd rock from Glasgow for people who like both sighing & fighting.

Slime City is made up of the three Michaels of We Are The Physics – the post punk new wave band that reached worldwide success before disbanding in 2013.

Following their debut single ‘Less Jools More Top Of The Pops’, a track about the gentrification of music, they released four DIY singles, including ‘Dial-up Internet Is The Purest Internet’, and ‘You & Everybody That You Love Will One Day Die’ (called ‘Sound of the summer’ by BBC Radio 1 Scotland).

After sold out headline shows in Glasgow, London, and Bristol, they toured with cult rock legends Mclusky and 90s DIY icons Bis.

After swearing to never release a full length album Slime City released their long awaited debut album Death Club in May 2023. Death Club features fan favourites Dial Up Internet, Glasgow Is A Shitehole and Great British Skeleton.

Death Club peaked at number 5 in the Official Scottish Album Charts and it would’ve gone higher if it hadn’t been for that Lewis Capaldi and those Sleeptokens.

“They sound like Dead Kennedys on a diet of Cardiacs and Life, a bit like those few great Sparks albums released around 1974” – Louder Than War

“Like Devo, if they had come from the Strathclyde Regional Council area” – Is This Music?

“Angular indie-pop bangers” – The Skinny

“Discordant manic thrill monster” – The Herald

“Slime City’s debut track is our new unofficial anthem” – Dork Magazine

“I don’t think I like [this]” – Simon Le Bon, Duran Duran
