    Untitled 7 is incredible, happy to see him exploring the jazz rock in his own way and it's so fluent. New band with new people definitely inspired him some.

    @jmckenzie962 4 месяца назад +72

    Regarding all the rumours about Black Midi breaking up, I personally find it very hard to believe there'd be any genuine bad blood between any of the members - if there is they've certainly been real fucking good at hiding it. But when you consider the kind of musicians that they are it makes a lot more sense to me that they simply wanna put Black Midi as a project on hold for a little while and do side quests like this (I mean their touring schedule from 2021-2023 was absolutely relentless, any band would probably wanna take a good year off after a run like that). My theory is that they want to emphasize "Black Midi New Road" (maybe including HMLTD as well considering Shank) as a collective of musicians - like a sort of post-Brexit British rock equivalent of something like the Native Tongues - who do side projects with each other and other people in addition to the main two projects (can you tell I'm still holding out hope for a full Black Midi New Road collab album lol). But regardless of whether Black Midi is done or not, we can be sure whatever stuff Geordie and Cam put out with these side projects will be amazing, and to me that's really all that matters.

      @J.A2133. 4 месяца назад +4

      @@CoopStewy didn't argue with that. I was just thinking about that because black midi's last tour they defaulted back to their schlag stage setup (2 guitars instead of keys) and played heavier versions of the hellfire and cavalcade songs. Greep clearly is a jazz guy yeah true
