Product Overview
Release Date: 9/5/2025
Label: Closed Casket Activities
Shaped across multiple studios and settings, Fleshwater tracked guitars and bass at God City Studio by Kurt Ballou with assistance from Zach Weeks, while drums were recorded by Kevin Bernstein at Mag Pie Recording Studio. Vocals were self-recorded by the band at home, before a final mix at God City Studios and a master by Nick Townsend of Infrasonic Studios. The album also features David Haik (Pianos Become The Teeth) on drums, whose session performance adds a rhythmic depth to the material.
The album follows the band’s 2022 debut We’re Not Here To Be Loved, a release that quickly gained momentum and carried them through extensive touring across the U.S., Europe, the UK, Australia, and Japan. Along the way, they shared bills with Deftones and The Mars Volta, and hit the road with acts such as Harm’s Way, Modern Color, and Ingrown—building a reputation for blending heaviness with melody in a way that is unique and nostalgic.
Leaning into both atmosphere and impact, Fleshwater pushes into new territory while keeping the emotional weight intact. It’s a step forward, but still unmistakably them.
