The singer will release their first LP on June 2 via Parlophone (pre-order here) and it has been previewed by recent single ‘Worms’.

“My bioluminescent heart is glowing. My post-apocalyptic fae world is here for you to journey into,” Ashnikko shared of the album in a statement. “My wings have been ripped out, but I’ve built them anew using WEEDKILLER machine parts. I am the one sent here to eliminate you, WEEDKILLER.”

Discussing the title track, out now, they added: “This is the song that spawned the whole album. It’s the climax of the album, the epic fight scene in the wasteland.

“Swords drawn, roots deep into the ground, i have come here to photosynthesize and eliminate the weedkillers. It is a violent fantastical storytelling set in my realm.”

Listen to the new track below.
