Pennsylvania experimental artist TOBACCO has announced his next studio album Hot, Wet & Sassy. The follow-up to 2016’s Sweatbox Dynasty arrives October 30 via Ghostly International. Ahead of the new record, TOBACCO has shared new song “Babysitter,” which features Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor. Listen to the song below and scroll down for Hot, Wet & Sassy’s tracklist and album art.
“I feel like it’s the most I’ve been able to refine what I’m doing,” TOBACCO said of the new album in a press release. “For the past decade I’ve had this motherfxcker on my shoulder that makes me pick away at structure and melody. Purposely covering up moments because I can. That really came to a peak on Sweatbox. So I wanted the opposite this time. Write the songs without ripping them in half. I went from ‘what would the Butthole Surfers do?’ to ‘what would Cyndi Lauper do?’”
Of “Babysitter,” TOBACCO added, “This was new for me, but I wanted to write a song that was everything I am and have been, and then like one notch further. Trent was the notch further.”
TOBACCO released Hot, Wet & Sassy’s “Centaur Skin” late last month. In 2019, TOBACCO teamed up with Aesop Rock for Malibu Ken.
