New black midi album Cavalcade out now
August 9, 2021
The record is a dynamic, hellacious and inventive follow-up to 2019’s widely-praised debut Schlagenheim. It scales beautiful new heights, pulling widely from a plethora of genres and influences, reaching ever upwards from an already lofty base of early achievements.
black midi – Geordie Greep (guitar, primary vocals), Cameron Picton (bass, vocals), and Morgan Simpson (drums) – envisage Cavalcade’s songs as a parade of larger than life figures strolling seductively past them. These include a cult leader fallen on hard times, an ancient corpse found in a diamond mine and legendary cabaret singer Marlene Dietrich, among others.
Cavalcade is available now on black heavyweight standard vinyl (ex-USA), on a limited edition picture disc, CD, cassette and download, plus it is available stream via all significant services.
