Black Midi – Hellfire
Chaotic and controlled all in one breath. That’s what London experimental outfit Black Midi have created with their third studio album, Hellfire. On their latest, the trio maneuvers the current musical landscape with unabashed audacity. Calculated sonic contortions leave you feeling as if you are participating in a sideshow of epic proportions. Be prepared.
Standout Songs: Hellfire, Sugar/Tzu, Eat Men Eat, Welcome To Hell, The Race Is About To Begin
