Big Special have dropped their new single ‘SLUGLIFE’

Big Special have unveiled their latest single ‘SLUGLIFE’, which follows their surprise second album ‘NATIONAL AVERAGE.’.

The release of ‘SLUGLIFE’ also follows the duo’s previous singles ‘PLAINTIVE NATIVE’, ‘DRAGGED UP A HILL (and thrown down the other side)’, and a collaboration with Sleaford Mods on ‘The Good Life’, which featured a video starring Gwendoline Christie.

Joe Hicklin describes ‘SLUGLIFE’ as “a song about living low to the ground and going slow. Feeling guilt for needing a bit of time to pull yourself up by your boot straps. It’s about working through the self hate that can come through hard times.”
