Slaughterhouse - Sick And Tired - Black - Vinyl LP

Los Angeles’s Slaughterhouse are back at it with 5 brand new tracks of early 80’s-inspired LA hardcore/death rock for the masses. Presented on a single sided 12” EP with etched B-side, Slaughterhouse are setting the tone for 2025 with what will no doubt be a fixture on best of the year lists, Sick and Tired , via Pirates Press Records .

After a raucous 2024, Slaughterhouse wasted no time getting back in the studio with producer Cameron Webb (Motörhead , Alkaline Trio , Pennywise ) to give the people more of what they’ve been clamoring for: big plans, big sounds, big screams…and this EP is the just the start of what they have in store for the new year! Never one to rest on their laurels, Slaughterhouse continue to set the scene afire and prove to everyone what those who’ve seen them live already know: this band is the real deal, and they can more than hold their own on any stage, with any line up.

Like the best of early 80’s LA punk bands, Slaughterhouse definitely has something to scream about. Regarding the opening salvo “Sick and Tired ,” singer Meriel O’Connell considers it a more personal song, remarking, “You get a lot of people talking in your ear about what you should do, say, look like, how you should behave…I don’t think we’re put on this planet to try to make everyone happy or feel comfortable.” If “Sick and Tired ” speaks to the more personal side, “DNA ” is, “more of a larger scale fuck you to living in this cis-, hetero-, Euro-centrist, ableist, capitalist hellscape…isn’t that cool?!”

If 4 new original songs weren’t enough, this EP features a blistering cover of Black Flag ’s “My War .” True to their LA roots and sound, Slaughterhouse rips through this legendary punk classic with a version that should make Rollins proud, while at the same time making it wholly their own. For fans of Slaughterhouse , this is what you’ve been waiting for. If you’ve seen them live in the past year, you already know what’s coming. If you haven’t had the privilege yet, this is your starting point. If this EP is, as the band puts it, “the tip of the iceberg creatively,” we can’t wait to hear what’s next! Grab your copy today!
