Sasami Unveils New Album and Releases Music Video for “Slugger”: Check it Out!
Sasami is Back with a New Album: ‘Blood on the Silver Screen’ Drops March 2025
In an exciting announcement for music lovers everywhere, Sasami will release her highly anticipated new studio album, Blood on the Silver Screen, on March 7, 2025, via Domino. This forthcoming record marks her first album since 2022’s critically-acclaimed Squeeze, which resonated deeply with fans and critics alike.
The new project promises an exploration of the tangled emotions that come with love and artistic creation, with Sasami herself noting that the record delves into “illogical passion, obsession, and guiltless pleasure.” She describes it as a journey into the chaos of romance, celebrating the thrills and heartaches that accompany sweeping devotion—though not without a hint of self-destruction.
To give fans a taste of what’s to come, Sasami has shared the new single "Slugger," a track bursting with pop exuberance that encapsulates the album’s theme. Accompanied by a baseball-themed music video directed by Crystalline Structures Studio, “Slugger” is an engaging blend of playful energy that showcases Sasami’s unique sound and vision.

Throughout Blood on the Silver Screen, Sasami enlisted the production talents of Jenn Decilveo and Rostam, ensuring a polished and innovative listening experience. The album also features a collaboration with indie darling Clairo on the track “In Love With a Memory,” promising a blend of their unique styles.
The first preview of the album came earlier this year with the single "Honeycrash." Sasami herself explained her creative intention: “I wanted to write a song with all the drama of a 19th-century classical opera, but with the patience and understanding of someone in therapy in 2024.” Consider us intrigued.
Fans can look forward to an amazing tracklist featuring songs like “Just Be Friends,” “Love Makes You Do Crazy Things,” and the contemplative “Nothing but a Sad Face On.” The full tracklist is as follows:
- Slugger
- Just Be Friends
- I’ll Be Gone
- Love Makes You Do Crazy Things
- In Love With a Memory [ft. Clairo]
- Possessed
- Figure It Out
- For the Weekend

As anticipation builds for Blood on the Silver Screen, Sasami will also embark on a fall tour, kicking off in Europe before heading to various U.S. cities. This tour promises to blend the intimate vibe of her music with vibrant live performances.
