    ‘Colossal Oppressor’, the highly-anticipated debut album by Ten Ton Slug, releases May 1st 2024.
    ‘Colossal Oppressor’ is the bands first full-length release and represents a natural progression from previous releases with an increased focus on songwriting and dynamics, yet still featuring the trademark huge riffs and pummelling drums that have come to characterise the sound of the Slug.
    Featuring guest vocals from Memoriam/Bolt Thrower frontman Karl Willetts on the track ‘Brutus’, 'Colossal Oppressor' represents five years of work distilled into 8 tracks of unrelenting riffage.*
    This release was part funded by the Galway City Arts Office
    Dedicated to the memory of Dessie Harrington
    _________________________________________
    *technically 7 tracks of unrelenting riffage and an interlude of relenting riffage
    ====
    released May 1, 2024
    Written and arranged by Ten Ton Slug:
    (Sean Sullivan, Rónán Ó hArrachtáin, Mícheál O Súilleabháin, Pavol Rosa, with contributions on drums from Kelvin Doran.)
    Original hand-painted artwork (acrylic on wood) by Adam Burke at Nightjar Illustration
    Recorded at Ciaran Culhane Recording in Limerick,
    Mixed and mastered at Trackmix Recording Studio Dublin by Michael Richards
    Produced by Sean Sullivan and Rónán Ó hArrachtáin.

    To estimate the size of a 10-ton slug, we need to consider the density of a typical slug and apply that to the desired mass. For simplicity, we'll assume the slug has the same density as water, since slugs are primarily composed of water. The density of water is approximately 1 gram per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), which is equivalent to 1,000 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
    Given:
    - 1 ton = 1,000 kilograms
    - 10 tons = 10,000 kilograms
    The volume \( V \) of the slug can be calculated using the formula:
    \[ V = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}} \]
    Substituting the known values:
    \[ V = \frac{10,000 \text{ kg}}{1,000 \text{ kg/m}^3} = 10 \text{ m}^3 \]
    So, a 10-ton slug would have a volume of 10 cubic meters.
    To provide a sense of the dimensions, if the slug were to take on a roughly cylindrical shape, we could make further estimates. Let's assume the slug has a length (L) and a diameter (D) such that:
    \[ \text{Volume} = \pi \left( \frac{D}{2}
    ight)^2 L \]
    If we assume a reasonable length-to-diameter ratio for a slug, such as 2:1, we can solve for the dimensions:
    \[ L = 2D \]
    \[ 10 = \pi \left( \frac{D}{2}
    ight)^2 (2D) \]
    Simplifying:
    \[ 10 = \pi \left( \frac{D^2}{4}
    ight) (2D) \]
    \[ 10 = \pi \frac{D^3}{2} \]
    \[ 10 = \frac{\pi D^3}{2} \]
    \[ 20 = \pi D^3 \]
    \[ D^3 = \frac{20}{\pi} \]
    \[ D = \left( \frac{20}{\pi}
    ight)^{1/3} \]
    Calculating:
    \[ D \approx \left( \frac{20}{3.1416}
    ight)^{1/3} \approx 1.81 \text{ meters} \]
    Since \( L = 2D \):
    \[ L \approx 2 \times 1.81 \approx 3.62 \text{ meters} \]
    Thus, a 10-ton slug, assuming it is roughly cylindrical with a 2:1 length-to-diameter ratio, would be approximately 1.81 meters in diameter and 3.62 meters long.

    everything about this compels me but i also happen to have a quite intense phobia of gastropods, so looking at the album art is quite the struggle

    Awesome album guys, you could also experiment by adding acoustic transitions later in songs that build up and go back to heavy. You guys seem talented.

    this actually slaps harder than a 10 ton slug in an argument about whether his dinner needs salt on it. (his dinner is you)

    I was just laughing at the thumbnail for a while, but I'm glad I opened it.
    It wasn't just a slug
