LISTEN: New Black Midi Single

black midi unveil new double A-side single

black midi have shared a new track called ‘Talking Heads’. You can hear it above.

Set for release on May 17 via Rough Trade, it’ll make up part of a double A-side single along with the previously revealed ‘Crow’s Perch’.

"We’ve always tried to make it heavy but danceable, melodic but good rhythms," says vocalist and guitarist, Geordie Greep of the group’s music. "It is accessible music, there are experimental aspects that we’ve taken from when we went crazy at the beginning, we’ve just reigned it in to make something that is pop music."

The band are set to play on tQ’s stage at The Great Escape in Brighton on May 11, and also have a number of festival dates and headline shows lined up around Europe through the summer.
