Moloch - Bend. Break. Kneel. Crawl. Cassette (DC84)

At long last, the UK’s heaviest band is back.

Bend. Break. Kneel. Crawl. is Moloch’s first new material since their Love Songs 7" in 2019, and in a world that has spent the better part of the last seven years rotting in slow motion, their absence has felt borderline criminal. This is music that should have been blaring relentlessly as everything fell apart—uncompromising, merciless, and utterly indifferent to comfort. They have been sorely, painfully missed.

A band that has always operated on its own terms, Moloch remain stubbornly immune to trends, timelines, or expectation. While they boast a slew of split releases and singles under their belt, the fact that this is only their third full-length in nearly twenty years says everything about their refusal to dilute or rush what they do. Across seven tracks, Bend. Break. Kneel. Crawl. delivers a towering, abrasive masterclass in hulking, snarling sludge—music that drags, bludgeons, and overwhelms with total authority. There’s no reinvention, no softening, no concession to time passed: just a band still crushing everything in its path and reminding everyone else exactly how far below them they remain.

Dry Cough is thrilled to be handling the cassette version on this monstrosity, whilst SuperFi Recordings are handling the CD, and the vinyl is self-released by the band themselves.
