Data Insight

The authorship is as closed here as it was on the record before it. Aristos Petrou and Scott Arceneaux Jr. write every song, and the only outside writers arrive through samples: Eliot Dubock, the British producer who works as Beat Butcha, on "Transgressions" and "Us vs. Them", and Karma-Ann Swanepoel on "The Light at the End of the Tunnel for $9.99 a Month", which uses her song "Once". Production is where this album opens up. Arceneaux still holds the board as Budd Dwyer on all of it, but co-producers turn up song by song, among them Aasis Beats, Kxvi, 685floyd, Dynox, cutxroat and Serenity Haes, a wider bench than Sing Me a Lullaby, My Sweet Temptation carried two years earlier.

New World Depression is the fourth studio album by $uicideboy$, released on June 14, 2024 through G*59 Records and recorded across 2023 and 2024. Scott Arceneaux Jr. produced it under his Budd Dwyer alias, with Aasis Beats, 685floyd and Kxvi credited as additional producers. Three singles preceded it: "Us vs. Them", "Are You Going to See the Rose in the Vase, or the Dust on the Table" and "The Thin Grey Line". It peaked at number five on the Billboard 200 and at number three in New Zealand, and the RIAA certified it gold.

Data note: Writer credits agree across the Wikipedia track listing, the MusicBrainz work relationships and the Composer and Lyricist fields on the Genius song pages, all of which give Aristos Petrou and Scott Arceneaux Jr. alone. The two sample-derived writers come from Wikipedia, which names Eliot Dubock on "Transgressions" and "Us vs. Them" and Karma-Ann Swanepoel on "The Light at the End of the Tunnel for $9.99 a Month"; the Genius credits for "Us vs. Them" carry the same person under his Beat Butcha name, and MusicBrainz gives his legal name as Eliot Peter Phillip Dubock. Per-track producers beyond Budd Dwyer come from Genius, since the Wikipedia track listing credits Budd Dwyer alone and names the additional producers only in prose. Sam Bo Bachrack is placed in mixers rather than producers because every finer credit for him on this album reads mixing engineer. Genius also lists Mia Farrow among the vocal credits on "Burgundy", which reads as a sampled voice rather than a session credit, so she is not listed as a performer.
