“Jellyfish Cadaver” is the slamming new single from Salem, Massachusetts-based high-octane outfit The Freqs, now streaming on all digital platforms.
Formed in 2019, The Freqs trio sees guitarist/vocalist Seth Crowell, bassist/vocalist Ian Mandly, and drummer Zack Fierman crafting a distinctive sound at the intersection of genres, taking influence from bands like Melvins, Queens Of The Stone Age, and The Jesus Lizard to deliver loud, riff-Heavy, fuzzed-out, Noise/Psych/Stoner-infused Rock. Nominated for Best Rock Artist Of The Year at the Boston Music Awards in 2021, the power trio continues to lash eardrums with their bombastic live set across New England and beyond.
In 2023, The Freqs released the gnarly fourth EP, “Poachers,” to critical acclaim from around the globe.
Following a couple years of silence since “Poachers,” The Freqs now arrive with their first single of 2025, “Jellyfish Cadaver,” featuring Nicholas Pentabona of Bedtimemagic on guest vocals. The song is about the grim reality of life forever slipping away. At night with shadows creeping in, the mind is untethered and adrift. Slowly going mad with each passing hour. The Freqs channel their inner dread with wild abandon on this latest single, which was produced, recorded, and mixed by Alex Allinson at The Bridge Sound & Stage in Cambridge (Lesotho, Miracle Blood, Bedtimemagic), mastered by Keith Gentile at Labryinth Audio in Peabody (Fórn, Hellhorse, American Midnight), and completed with artwork by Ellis Roundy of The P.A.’s.
