black midi are: Geordie Greep (guitar, vocals), Cameron Picton (bass, vocals), and Morgan Simpson (drums).

black midi live is far more intensely physical than their studio recordings may suggest. It makes no sense to form a settled opinion on black midi until you’ve seen them out, felt the power of the tension they carefully build up just before each explosive cathartic release. Morgan’s concussive percussion underlining everything, sometimes a boxer fighting a nightly bout with his kit, others silkily caressing the cymbals. Cameron, the still centre of a cyclone, waiting for those moments when the band feel inevitable, invincible, like “that massive lurching machine from Mad Max Fury Road.” And Geordie, stalking the stage, soaking up that exhilarating, combustible energy, pouring it all out through his microphone and guitar.

black midi’s studio albums are Schlagenheim (2019), Cavalcade (2021) and Hellfire (2022). Further recordings include the live album Live Fire, standalone singles “Cruising,” “7-Eleven” and track drops like “ded sheeran (ed sheeran send).” Other notable releases are Cavalcovers EP, black midi live in the USA and The black midi Anthology Volume 1 - Tales of Suspense and Revenge.
