BLACK FUTURES – SINGLE REVIEW

Black Futures – Love feat. P.O.S. 
Black Futures - Love feat. P.O.S. 


Release Date: Out Now

London duo Black Futures are making a late play for my affections in 2017 with a brace of singles, the second of which is new single ‘Love’. Beginning with a throbbing guitar sound that the Prodigy would have killed for if Trent Reznor hadn’t got there first, ‘Love’ gets through the gears pretty quickly and by the time Doomtree vocalist P.O.S. joins in with some desperate vocals there’s no doubting this song. What I love (oh the irony) about Black Futures is that they blend the ferocity of punk with beats that make you want to move and a darkness that moves you to smash things, like authority, until all that’s left are the shards of light breaking through between the tangled barbed wire and twisted iron-work. If there’s an energetic live show to match then these guys might just be making my ‘nice’ list this Christmas although they’ll probably prefer to be on the naughty list, it’s where all the cool people are after all.
