    "bbDescription": "BICEP today officially announce their long-awaited new studio album ‘SLUG’ – out January 29th 2027, on Ninja Tune – an 18-track body of work spanning the full breadth of BICEP’s sonic DNA. ‘SLUG’ is firmly rooted in the unmistakable BICEP sound, while also seeing the duo broaden their musical palette, pushing familiar DNA into new territory.\r\n\r\nAt the heart of ‘SLUG’ is an invitation to look beyond first impressions. The album’s title was inspired by the stark contrast between the land slug most people immediately picture and the extraordinary colours, shapes and intricate forms of their underwater counterparts. Speaking on the idea, BICEP say: “It felt like an amazing metaphor: you think one thing, but actually there’s a whole world beyond what you initially perceive.”\r\n\r\nThat sense of contrast runs through the record at a fundamental level. Clean drum patterns were distorted; pristine vocals pushed through analogue processing; soft synths placed against rougher textures. Long-standing BICEP hallmarks of melancholy, euphoria and emotional resonance were pushed further, with opposing sounds and feelings deliberately brought together rather than resolved.\r\n\r\nThe album brings together an expansive cast of collaborators and contributors from across the musical spectrum. Arriving today alongside the announcement are three distinct new singles, ‘Gas / Ultra / Equarium’, featuring Lauren Duffus & SOARR (“Gas”), Eartheater & Saskia (“Ultra”) and Kehina (“Equarium”). They follow the previous single drop: ‘Air / Lemonder / Viper’ – which boasts a collaboration with the prolific Warp & Throttle Records artist and electronic producer Clark, as well as vocal contributions from Saskia and SOARR – with the six tracks to date beginning to reveal the breadth of sounds, voices and ideas across ‘SLUG’.  \r\n\r\nhttps://bicep.bandcamp.com/album/slug",
