MUMBAI : Skate punk band Totally Slow infuses melodic hardcore with a creative surf vibe and a 90s basement punk ethos. Their music is a blend of razor-sharp hooks and left-leaning politics, delivered amidst a wall of guitars. Eddie Sanchez (Night!Night!, Solar Halos, The Love Language) has recently joined on bass, completing the current lineup which includes Andy Foster, Chuck Johnson, and Scott Hicks.
Having shared the stage with various acts, from Agent Orange to Laura Jane Grace to Man or Astroman, they bring a diverse musical experience to their audience.
In celebration of their fourth LP, the band unveils the melodic punk anthem “Future Burns.”

Described by guitarist and vocalist Scott Hicks as “an existential field trip through the tortured mind of an omnipotent autocrat drowning under the weight of anxiety and obsolete tech,” the song serves as a sneak peek into their upcoming second LP with Ohio’s Refresh Records.
The upcoming album was recorded at The Sandwich Shoppe with Scotty Sandwich. Features collaborations with Noelle from Shehehe and Sam from Man or Astroman. Mastered by Mike Westbrook.

‘Future Burns’ Lyrics:
through the confines
trying on the king’s shoes
fragile agony
we will try to see it through
your power absolutely
manifests as torture, too
a psychic paperweight
try to walk away
honesty is power
honestly, it’s dead weight
righteousness turned sour
no one else has
any restraint
On your soapbox
Level with the rank and file
Common interest
pandering the undefiled
It’s all a recipe
find yourself a guillotine
The huddled masses have no patience
And no energy
honesty is power
honestly, it’s dead weight
righteousness turned sour
no one else has
any restraint
