black midi

Black midi is a London-based experimental rock band that has garnered critical acclaim for their innovative and frenetic sound since their inception. Formed in 2017 by Geordie Greep (vocals, guitar), Matt Kelvin (guitar), Cameron Picton (bass, vocals), and Morgan Simpson (drums), the group met at the BRIT School, a prestigious performing arts and technology school. They quickly made a name for themselves with their unconventional song structures, avant-garde musical approach, and electrifying live performances. Known for blending elements of math rock, noise rock, and post-punk, black midi's sound defies easy categorization and has evolved with each release.

Their ground-breaking debut album, "Schlagenheim," was released in 2019 and was followed by "Cavalcade" in 2021, with both receiving widespread praise for their bold experimentation and technical prowess. Tracks like "bmbmbm" and "John L / Despair" showcase their penchant for intense and unpredictable songcraft, while "Chondromalacia Patella" and "Cruising" further demonstrate their mastery of dynamics and intricate musicianship. The subsequent release "Cavalcovers," an EP of covers, reveals the band's ability to reinterpret the works of others through their unique lens, adding another layer to their expanding musical tapestry. With the latest album "Hellfire" adding to the band's growing discography, black midi continues to push the boundaries of modern rock music and solidify their reputation as one of the most exciting and challenging groups of their generation.
