Bathtub Madonna is watching you. Recorded and mixed by Trevor Reilly (A Wilhelm Scream) at Anchor End Studios in New Bedford, the ska-punk septet’s debut full length album Bathtub Madonna explores what it means to remain human in a fractured world, where eyes are everywhere but nothing’s in focus. The ambitious release charts new creative territory, fluctuating between anthemic pop punk, Rage-y rap rock, brassy ballads, and classic two-tone ska.

Amidst the stylistic shifts, every song is grasping at the same essential question: how do we hold on to hope while the world falls apart? How do we create while AI slop offers easy outs disguised as empowerment? How do we connect while our social order shatters, while original thought is optimized out of existence, while late-stage capitalism leaves us crawling around a hall of mirrors, looking for an out that never appears? Bathtub Madonna doesn’t pretend to have easy answers. Instead, it digs into discomfort and resists the urge to look away, while Mary’s steady gaze is watching. Waiting. And warning.

Pink Slip’s album release party for Bathtub Madonna will be held Friday, October 2nd at Faces Brewery in Malden, MA featuring support from local dream punk darlings Little Low and Providence based prog-ska powerhouses So Many Dangers. The band will play their first show outside of the Northeast on October 22nd at the 529 Club in Atlanta, GA with fellow Fest 24 performers Mega Infinity and the Doomstompers, followed by their Fest debut in Gainesville Florida on October 24th.

Bathtub Madonna will be available on September 25th, 2026 on all streaming platforms.
