| Black Futures - Karma Ya Dig? |
Release Date: Out Now
Sound the klaxon, release the ceremonial
unicorns, break out the good cheese. We might have just found the single of the
year and it’s been a hell of a year. This latest release from London duo Black
Futures (great name) comes under the title ‘Karma Ya Dig?’ and it’s not just
brilliant, it’s spiritual. Considering they describe themselves as Industrial
noise-punk there’s a distinct Talking Heads meets Flaming Lips sense of the
religious about the opening strains of “hey my friend, I’ll meet you on the
other side”. They then settle in to a Beck-esque verse before blowing up in to
a snarling, Royal Blood gone pop chorus replete with growling guitars,
industrial beats and that aforementioned spiritual lyric. This is music to quit
your job to, music to walk out on your shitty lover to, music to start afresh
to. If you’re feeling down then this will lift you up, if you’re feeling pretty
good then this will make you feel awesome and if you’re already feeling
awesome, well, then let me know what this does to you if you are still of this
world. Of course, no band called Black Futures is going to be entirely uplifting
so watch the accompanying video – a snapshot of all the worst bits of humanity –
to keep you grounded. Watch out for this at the end of the year when it comes
to doling out the awards.
