Loud, kick arse riffs with healthy smatterings of intellect driving them. Lower Slaughter is a village in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, 4 miles (6.4 km) south west of Stow-on-the-Wold. It is also the one of the best bands in the UK right now.

The Quietus' description of 'lurching noise-rock that occasionally works the angles but is chiefly a showpiece for big fuck-off riffs that call to mind Pissed Jeans, Nirvana and Harvey Milk' couldn't be more accurate. The live shows are really something to be experienced.

Their second album 'Some Things Take Work' is out now on Newcastle's Box Records, home of Italia 90, Big Lad, Casual Nun, Terminal Cheesecake, Ore and a host of other incredible musicians.

A Dischord band wrapped in '90s European screamo - Pitchfork.

There is so much enthusiasm, energy and joy on display, it's a must-have for anyone who loves the wonderful music coming from the UK underground The Quietus.

This is catharsis in youthful noise Loud & Quiet.
