“Freak Dreams is a mix of all our individual influences and by far our most diverse album. On some songs, we did a lot of experimental elements that give the record a different vibe and we couldn’t be more happy with the outcome! The whole process of writing felt like evolving to a new chapter for Slope and we are proud to share it with the world!”
