Disfiguring The Goddess Premiere New Single & Music Video "Low Slam Low" From Upcoming New Album "Bloom"

Disfiguring The Goddess have announced that their new album “Bloom” will be released on July 31st via Seek And Strike. The electronically infused deathcore project, led by Cameron “Big Chocolate” Argon, have also debuted “Low Slam Low” as the first single from the record following their recent worldwide signing with the label.
Commenting on the new partnership, Argon said:
“Partnering with Seek and Strike marks a natural and timely evolution for Disfiguring The Goddess. As the working title became official, ‘Bloom‘ took on a deeper symbolic weight; it represents DTG awakening from a long slumber to become what it was always intended to be. I see myself as the fire-keeper for that vision, and Seek and Strike arrived at the perfect moment to add the energy and momentum needed for this next stage.”
Speaking about the lead single from “Bloom,” Argon added:
“The album’s first single, ‘Low Slam Low,’ is one of the most brutal and relentless songs on the album. It was written with a very intentional slam-focused mindset, shifting between blast beats and crushing slams that gradually morph into slower, heavier forms of themselves. A huge part of the song’s character comes from the guitar tone.
I tracked it with my Gretsch Baritone tuned extremely low, and I love how much body and texture that instrument carries. On parts of this song, the guitar stops feeling like a traditional riff instrument and starts becoming more like a wall of physical texture, with the notes nearly disappearing under the weight of the tone. When the bridge hits, that is where the actual voice of the guitar comes through more clearly. The whole track is also surrounded by creepy sound design that keeps shadowing the brutality and pushing the atmosphere further.
Lyrically, it is one of my favorite songs on the record because of how strange and personal it feels. There is a moment in it where I am talking about being completely alone with my thoughts, while at the same time the opening of ‘My Girl‘ by The Temptations is looping in my head. That contrast captures something I really love about the song. To me, it feels like a unique contribution not only to this album, but to the more brutal and slam-oriented side of heavy music right now.”
Argon also reflected on what he feels he accomplished with the album overall, adding:
“‘Bloom‘ is an album about accumulation, cultivation, and execution. There are a lot of themes running through it, both personal and sonic, but when I step back and look at the bigger picture, it symbolizes nurturing the seed of DTG until it finally blossoms. It is the beginning of a new chapter and the closing of an old one.”
