black midi: Schlagenheim
black midi will release their much anticipated upcoming album, Schlagenheim, this summer through Rough Trade Records. The London label announced the 9 track, 43 minute long debut in a tweet earlier today.
The Dan Carey produced album drops June 21. The precocious foursome won’t announce track names til the album arrives, but they treated fans to a few extra easter eggs: additional North American dates on their colossal world tour and a super secret special show tonight to celebrate their upcoming project.
Pre-order black midi’s debut album Schlagenheim HERE.
If black midi’s upcoming album hits anything like their two recent singles, “Crow’s Perch” and “Talking Heads,” we can expect nothing but manic, meandering lyrics inside of high-motor mobile meter from start to finish. If they play their North American Tour anything like their SXSW performance, these BRIT School alumni are about to knock crowds on their asses.
