Geordie Greep (guitarist and vocalist in black midi) announces his debut solo album 'The New Sound'.

Following three astonishing albums with black midi, most recently 2023's 'Hellfire', and almost non-stop worldwide tours for near-on five years, Geordie Greep has somehow found time to record his first solo album 'The New Sound', an album that has allowed him scope to explore creative ideas like never before.

It boasts a brand of high quality, all-embracing alternative pop fun not heard in a very long time. Over thirty session musicians were involved in the making of the album, on two continents, in São Paulo and London. Geordie Greep has had plenty of practice with black midi over the years in performing musical and lyrical Cruyff turns, full of stop-starts, blasts and bangs and whispered soliloquies. Here the method is employed to ask: what part of the narrative should we listeners believe, or take as our emotional crutch?

It's certainly an album that fully engages the listener, throughout the eleven tracks. Greep; "I was worried about the length in terms of not overblowing it. But I'm also really bloody bored of listening to music and, for better or worse, knowing in advance what it means or what it's trying to do. All my favourite music is about the listener coming to terms with what is going on."
