In the bit where it speeds up towards the end, they play the riff 27 times before the first break, then 15 before the second, and finally 9 times. 27, 15 and 9 are all divisible by 3 27/3 = 9 15/3 = 5 9/3 = 3 Hence, 953! :)))
I like how going into the quiet section, you can see Geordie being like "cut it Matt, cut it" with a businesslike sense of urgency and then you can see him processing the frustration for a couple seconds
I love black midi and the energy they bring to the music. The guitarist’s string broke and the drummers cymbal fell off because they were playing so hard. That’s true rock.
I can say as a drummer, while good technique and practice is above all else. Being physically in good shape will you give you a bit of an extra edge, this applies to just about any instrument.
Greatest thing to happen to rock since The Mars Volta, I can't think of a single rock band more inventive than them until Black Midi dropped Schlagenheim. And fucking Cavalcade? We're being spoiled.
Have you heard king gizzard and the lizard wizard? 24 albums not strictly prog although they do that too it's worth going down the rabbit hole or gizzverse as it's known
I was at a bar/arcade. I was already drunk but whoever had control of the music played really good songs. This was one of them while I was gone chowing down a burger but hyped as hell
one o,f atleast fellow, like just the desicion of their fucking energy and guitar and just how they fucking break into, what they use their breaks with and aife aceahfua fella. its just so strange too , the energy jesus NOT WHO I WNAT YU TO BE
@@_narrows have you checked out the band "Touchdown Jesus"? They released their first ep not too long ago and they are a really great band thats similar to black midi
Plagiarism is a blurry line in music, chances are it was just inspiration, and there's also just as much of a chance it was coincidence. I know I've accidentally written songs that exist before LOL
@@jchunter21 captain beefhearts songs always have stunning experimental guitarwork and writing, but the production is very eh. Comparing an albums production to that of captain beefhearts should not be a compliment ngl lol, but for sure theyve taken some inspiration from captain beefheart but not production wise.

Dig their energy but they sound like they're still trying to find their sound. Seems like it's all thrown together sloppily and his vocals are annoying. You can have energy without sounding talentless.
I like to think of them as a band that has mastered the art of "controlled chaos", if you will. I can assure you that their sound and the singers vocal style are all deliberate. I do agree with you, however, that they are still trying to find their sound. But my god.. if they are this good at such a young age, where will they be 10 years from now?

Goddamn. Underrated comment.
Math rock
thought about it too much
This isn't just a clever troll comment, I'll bet that's actually the derivation of the song title.
you can just count measures out, they play 9, then 5, then 3 measures in doubletime before going into the drop
I like how going into the quiet section, you can see Geordie being like "cut it Matt, cut it" with a businesslike sense of urgency and then you can see him processing the frustration for a couple seconds
What was he pissed at
@@bananatarash3704 he let feedback run a lil too long
notice that and laugh every time i rewatch this
Black Midi with Matt will always be my favourite Black Midi..

@@louisgaumond3294 around 4:40 you can hear a brief sound of a string snapping and later see him taking out the broken string.
the feedback matt creates brings a tear to my eye
These kids kick ass! That guy's voice is mind-blowing, he looks like a 15 year old but his voice is so deep
Mature I would say, not deep.
He would have been 19 in this so you’re not far off
the guitar playing in the beginning is insane
how the hell does that drummer keep up, he has to be a god
I can say as a drummer, while good technique and practice is above all else. Being physically in good shape will you give you a bit of an extra edge, this applies to just about any instrument.
He won the title of best drummer ever before BM
this is so well mixed that a thought, for a little while, it was the studio version.
How do you even write music like this? Legends.
I've been wondering this since I first heard the song
You gotta go to the danger zone
Drugs
It's not new, polvo, thinking fellers, and sun city girls we're doing this sort of thing in the 90's.
@@billyshakespeare488 ok and they still made their own. It’s still very complex and unique to mold a song like this with inspirations on your sleeve
Thank you KEXP for providing us with another great band :( I will miss bm with all my heart
Innovative and thought-provoking stuff.
Greatest thing to happen to rock since The Mars Volta, I can't think of a single rock band more inventive than them until Black Midi dropped Schlagenheim. And fucking Cavalcade? We're being spoiled.
haha what a nice feller. And "Hellfire" is dropping this July!!!!! oh man I can't fucking wait.
Black midi’s drummer reminds me a lot of Jon Theodore’s drumming on the first two Volta records

@@Bevtone Been a fan for a while, good stuff
This song is now called 953.
2:57 drummer's cymbal disapear
Comes back at 3:25
disappears again at 4:50
and back again at 5:25
If you look closely you see it fall off a few seconds after that marked time, falls off again at the end as well
Saw them live yesterday. These guys rock!!! This song reminds me a bit of QOTSA- Song for the dead
Drummer is incred
I love how much they let the Polvo influence shine through on this one
glad you picked it up too. even with the tuning--BEADF#B--like how polvo dropped down to B quite a bit too
Really reminds me of part chimp
There's a great post punk scene again
It's math rock, progressive, jazz fusion, barbie fans, they seem like slint, swans and a little of sonic youth.
@@alex11v3 post punk I find is basically an all encompassing term for 'loud clever rock bands that don't fit into any other label'
@@samuelalexander1014 Joy division and the cure aren't loud and they are post punk.
@@alex11v3 maybe just clever then...
@@alex11v3 and tbf, they're still relatively loud
I was at a bar/arcade. I was already drunk but whoever had control of the music played really good songs. This was one of them while I was gone chowing down a burger but hyped as hell
This band is just awesome
how is this not the most awesome thing yu ever seen
one o,f atleast fellow, like just the desicion of their fucking energy and guitar and just how they fucking break into, what they use their breaks with and aife aceahfua fella. its just so strange too , the energy jesus NOT WHO I WNAT YU TO BE
Love how it started out at a moderate tempo, then Morgan was just like “nah”
dddd werororehhhh
Hahahaha Cameron putting the cymbal back on at 3:26 what a legend
my introduction to Black Midi, can't wait to hear where the future takes these guys
no more future my guy💀
@@rafavonz7538 I've been enjoying Picton's recent projects, and Greep's near constant performances. They got huge futures dummy
@@_narrows have you checked out the band "Touchdown Jesus"? They released their first ep not too long ago and they are a really great band thats similar to black midi
@@rafavonz7538 i have now. That 20 minutes is so jam packed with interesting sounds, I'll definitely keep an eye on them :)
My heart is beating so fast rn...
This is quite possibly the best thing I've ever heard
They should headline Glastonbury. This year.

@@lvk104 Tf you mean bleak
gives me a rocket from the crypt / drive like jehu vibe
yeah definitely , same with Near DT, MI
Extraordinarily wonderful.
Morgan really proved his goat status w this one
Loved this. Reminds me of earlier Polvo, but with it's own flavor.
Interesting little factoid: 953 or b-953/10 is the engraving for a 10mg instant release Dextroamphetamine generic by Teva Pharmaceuticals.
What?
@@joelfortin6634 953 is the pill ID for a specific prescription amphetamine.
@@DonKynos ok thanks for explaining
yummy speed
I’m captivated
I should not have listened to this while being extremely high
@@carloslopes5322 very cool
nah thats the perfect time to listen to black midi
Sounds Loud
sounds crazy wild, love it
wonder what he makes the noise with (other than just the feedback) 0:11
He has a fat fuzz factory which are known for crazy sounding feedback
would you win if you played this at an elementary school's talent show asking for a friend
Idk probably not tho
I mean this is awesome but a bit weird so...
Do it for the love, not for awards
Play the song, flip off your teachers, walk out and you’ll be the school legend forever
Cool riff🤟
1:22 What is he saying?
ba ba ba ba
I think he was telling him to tune
“Cut it, Matt”
The main riff is possibly a plagiarism of "Jupiter Apple - Querida Superhist X Mr Frog" (brazilian musician)
Plagiarism is a blurry line in music, chances are it was just inspiration, and there's also just as much of a chance it was coincidence. I know I've accidentally written songs that exist before LOL
Just discovered this band and they fucking rule. The singer sounds somewhat like Sting in a way, I love it
Their best
Holy shit these guys fucking rock
Cool
Captain Beefheart like production with Talking Head like vocals 👏🏾👏🏾🤘🏾👍🏾
Nah
@@riikonen1884 that's what he goes for in this album tho

call the doctor because those are some sick drums
It's Simon Farnaby. And he's cut down Brian May's Red Special. Nice. Very nice. xx
🤘🤘me facina
RAWK!
Fuck yeah
Almost all the music I love is made by women. Right now, black midi is the best all-male band in the word. I do quite like Iceage, but yeah.
Name all the music you listen to?
Editor - Your Name
0:04 te enojai por todo
jajajajajaj
And I came on looking for Ed Sheeran. Duh
The sounds are similar, i don't blame you
ed sheeran sucks
sellout ginger prick
his music is doodoo
Ded Sheeran
remember when he stole morgan’s drumsticks
They are strange... But I like it!
anyone know where I can buy morgans a tribe called quest shirt?
B B bit late but if you search tribe called quest shirt on Depop it’ll probably come up there easy to come by
the vocals have a little david byrne in them

This gives me kinda "The Doors" vibez.
lmfao what
@@horselookinghumanheadass Greep's vocals maybe, but only that
What guitar is the lead singer using in this one?
Not sure exactly what model but it's a baritone reverend.
It’s a reverend descent
Massive future of the left vibes
What drum kit is that?
could be wrong but i think it’s a tama imperialstar.
They look like a subrnormal guys band, i like it, nice music! Congrats!

Sounds a bit like The Hives.

i love his voice
I’d prefer a voice with character over some panic at the disco BS

some people just dont get it. sad...
