Froglord commented: “»Live By The Fuzz Or Die By The Slime« out March 9th! I am incredibly excited to officially announce the release of a new EP! Filled with thick blackened psychedelic doom, this record is perfect for fans of OM, Conan, and Batushka. While only 3 tracks (albeit long ones), I really feel that this is some of best material Froglord has ever produced and I cannot wait for you all to finally hear it.
Available on CD and Cassette, all merch including patches and tshirts are available from bandcamp. We will also be playing all tracks on this record on our upcoming tour dates, so don’t forget to grab your tickets and witness the slime in the flesh.
Thank you also to Shane Horror for the incredible artwork on this one.”

Since the dawn of time, mystics have long prophesised the coming of an ancient amphibian bestowed with deathray vision and ectoplasmic slime. Emerging from deep within The Mystic Swamp, Froglord arise bringing their unique blend of stoner groove and psychedelic doom. With face melting fuzz and foot stomping grooves, Froglord’s reign of amphibious terror shall begin.
Having released four full length albums in the last three years, Froglord return once more. This time with a shorter three track EP, »Live By The Fuzz Or Die By The Slime«. Adopting a distinctly more blackened-psychedelic-doom sound for this release, Froglord once again showcase their ability to blend genres across their already vast discography. Previously, Froglord records have been entirely recorded and produced as a one-person operation, however this EP sees collaboration with other artists, to bring in haunting cello and vocal acapella arrangements. »Live By The Fuzz Or Die By The Slime« is the perfect record for fans of Om, Conan, and Batushka.
Formed during the pandemic as a one-man project, Froglord released their first EP in 2020, followed soon after by their debut album. To date Froglord has built up an extensive library of releases, including, 4 albums, 3 EPs, 1 split, 1 live album, and 2 singles. In 2021 just after the release of The Mystic Toad, Froglord developed into a 4-piece band as live venues began to reopen. Since then, Froglord has quickly gained a reputation for their commanding and theatrical stage performances.
Whilst Froglord’s sound leans primarily toward stoner doom, they have been characterised for their genre-bending sound, with each album taking on its own distinct style, taking strong influences from psychedelia, prog, sludge, grunge, groove and blues; to deliver the tale of The Froglord through a concept-based discography.
Currently, Froglord are set to release a single in the spring of 2024, written for the upcoming found footage horror film Frogman (dir. Anthony Cousins). As well as this original, the film also contains several older Froglord tracks.
Rooted also in environmentalism, Froglord has worked closely with Save The Frogs, the world’s largest amphibian-based conservation charity, raising over £2500 through »Save The Frogs« EP sales and campaigning, as well as £300 for the Human Dignity Trust.
