Their debut EP, Group Bonding, marked a major step forward, resulting in a sold-out headline show at Paper Dress Vintage followed by headline performances at The Windmill Brixton and a Rough Trade Recommends showcase at Rough Trade East. Now signed to Venn Records, Laughter is preparing to release their sophomore EP, Slime, pushing their sound further into the space between crushing heaviness, shimmering melody, and raw cathartic intensity.
