Hardcore Punks ChumHuffer – announces new 7″ vinyl EP ‘Slaughterhouse Five’ a punk rock exploration of time / morality & mental struggle + new single ‘ Slaughterhouse’ out Feb 14th

Hardcore punks ChumHuffer are set to release their highly anticipated third studio EP, Slaughterhouse Five, on their own DWY Records, in May 2025. Inspired by Kurt Vonnegut’s classic novel, the EP’s title track draws eerie parallels between the chaos of the book’s wartime setting and the unrest in today’s world.

With everything happening around us, it feels like we’re unstuck in time—just like Vonnegut’s character Billy Pilgrim,” says the band. “This record explores the battle between past and future, reality and illusion, and what it means to hold onto your own sense of morality.”

Tracklist – Slaughterhouse Five
Slaughterhouse
Miami
Ways
Trawler

Fans won’t have to wait long to get a taste of Slaughterhouse Five. The first single, “Slaughterhouse,” will be released on February 14, 2025, with pre-orders for the EP launching on February 15 at ChumHuffer.com.

Known for their raw energy and razor-sharp social commentary, ChumHuffer delivers a record that blends breakneck tempos with thought-provoking lyrics—perfect for fans of The Dead Kennedys, Fear, Descendents, Black Flag, and The Dwarves.
