Pupil Slicer's new singles represent a significant step in the band's artistic evolution. The exploration of personal and political themes, particularly those related to non-binary identity and autism, adds depth and complexity to their music. The band's collaboration with Joe Clayton and the emphasis on inclusivity indicate a commitment to pushing boundaries and creating music with a strong message.

These tracks explore both my own experiences as a non-binary autistic person, as well as the more generalized treatment of many kinds of minorities as a whole.

I’m really happy to be writing more from my heart on this new material and I don’t want anyone mistaking what PUPIL SLICER stands for – this is Trans Inclusive Radical Hatred.

This is the most collaborative effort we’ve had as a band. Every one of us – myself, Josh (drums), and Luke Booth (bass/vox), who joined us for the first time – poured our hearts into this. Each of us contributed to crafting the strongest vision and the best music possible for the new era of Pupil Slicer.

With the release of "Heather" and "Black Scrawl," Pupil Slicer solidifies their position as a leading voice in the mathcore scene. The band's willingness to tackle complex and personal themes, combined with their aggressive musical style, promises a compelling future for their music. Fans can anticipate further exploration of these themes in their upcoming work.
