US alt-rockers Slothrust have premiered their ‘Peach’ video exclusively on Kerrang! Radio.

Lifted from the trio’s critically lauded fourth studio album ‘The Pact’, ‘Peach’ follows in the footsteps of ‘Double Down’, which you may have heard on Johnny Doom’s show.

Vocalist/guitarist Leah Wellbaum says of the track: "‘Peach’ is a song that embraces the inner-child and all that comes with it. There is this special way we free associate when we are young that seems to fade away with age and experience.

“It’s important to me to keep that curiosity alive and intentionally access feelings when you felt them for the first time - both light and dark.”

In keeping with these themes, the accompanying video features child-like cartoony magic realism, as Leah explains: “I’ve had this vision in mind for “Peach” for a long time and it’s so exciting to manifest it.

“Music is potent to all creatures, and I love this fairytale-esque idea of a song that is so magnetic that the creatures of the forest can’t help but be pulled in to join the magic.”

‘Peach’ is available to download from Friday 3rd May via Dangerbird Records.

Having played five headline UK shows back in January, Slothrust are playing a series of gigs and festivals across the US this March, April and May. For a full list of dates, head to the band’s official website.
