Returning with their first new music since their widely acclaimed 2024 debut EP, Deathless, Welsh outfit Slate have today shared details of their much awaited second EP The Grandfather Clock. Coinciding with the announcement, the band have unveiled the title track, a brooding, atmospheric piece that builds around crashing guitar layers and pummelling percussion. “The Grandfather Clock is about cherishing the unconditional love you are given and not taking it for granted,” Shephard explains. “The items described throughout the song - the rocking horse, the garden patch, the pink marble elephants - are all objects that were in Jack’s grandfather's house.” Take a listen below with the accompanying video directed by Aled Victor and Sam Stevens.

The Grandfather Clock EP arrives physically on 12” vinyl, via Dinked’s Early Doors series, and digitally on January 22nd, 2027, via Brace Yourself Records.
