Blanck Mass is releasing a new album on limited edition vinyl.

Mind Killer is an improvised recording by the artist, real name Benjamin John Power, that was captured in April 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19 lockdown. It was recorded using a core setup based around the Korg VOLCA Series for beats, bass, samples and keys, and plays continuously over 40 minutes.

The only alteration to the original live recording is a slight reduction in length so it could fit onto two sides of vinyl. 1,000 copies will be made available worldwide via Power's own label, Weirding Way, and can be ordered in advance from here.

The release of Mind Killer follows on from recent album In Ferneaux.

Weirding Way will release Mind Killer on May 14, 2021.
