Slumlords

In 2003 the Baltimore hardcore outfit the Slumlords assembled, comprising vocalist Jeff Perlin (ex-Breakdown), guitarist Dom, bassist Doug E and drummer Scott; the group shares its name with an unrelated 1990s metal act and must not be mistaken for it. Perfect Victim Records offered the band a contract after hearing their debut, self-financed EP, and the Slumlords issued their self-titled full-length on the label in 2004.
