@@williambell9759 Perhaps the audible similarities to no-wave had something to do with it -- I mean, that little guitar fill at 1:18 could have been straight out of DNA or James Chance; the little noise intermissions remind me very much of Theoretical Girl; the engagement with pop-culture shown by most original no-wave is embodied by the playing of a rant from Big Brother through guitar pickups; and the plodding, doomy progression is textbook Lydia Lunch -- one can even hear Lizzy Mercier-Descloux in the little high-pitched guitar line that runs before the major noise break. Those are just little aesthetic similarities, though. What defined no-wave music was a reclaiming and subsequent destruction of previous musical aesthetics and styles -- in the late '70s and early '80s, these styles were jazz, funk, disco, blues, rock-and-roll, and punk music. The styles Black Midi seem to reclaim are math rock, post-punk, jazz fusion (I mean, listen to that drumming), elements of electronica, and even the noise-rock of Sonic Youth and their contemporaries which grew from no-wave. This appropriation and deconstruction is present in Black Midi. They may not be classic no-wave -- for whatever that's worth as a classification; spot the similarities between Mercier-Descloux and Mars -- but they're close enough to make your dismissal of the similarities unfounded as well as opprobrious.

The sad thing is it’s a cover. Why they don’t acknowledge it makes me wonder.

Heard Liam Gallagher say his sons a big fan but he thought they were weird and if Liam Gallagher thinks they're weird then they got to be worth a look... I can safely say.... yep he's right! 🤣
Obviously this band is 100% jam up. They play extremely well together… great chemistry for sure. The timing they keep is insane and it’s spot on. For a band to be full on jamming then come to abrupt silence with every instrument perfectly timed is not easy to do. It’s not just stopping altogether, they resume back to full on chaos one time and they do it multiple times. My point is this band very tight knit and technical... i mean tight tight tight. If I had to guess, I’d definitely say they been making music together since they were kids… or at least half of them. With all that being said, I understand the magnitude and complexity of their instrumentals. It’s insane how precisely executed and on time they are with each other. Now to my point… I wanna like them but I just can’t feel them. I don’t know what this.
I was in the youtube recommendations, and my cat accidentally put her paws on the computer and the result was this video and i just want to say WHAT A MAGNIFICENT PURPOSE

Preoccupations is cool
@@klaytontrujillo8428 did you get them this year?
best fucking breakdown i've heard in a long time. this is new punk to me, this kicks so much conformity and it's amazing to watch.
I love how England throughout the years manages to continuously come out with new, interesting and inventive, creative rock bands
Heard Liam Gallagher say his sons a big fan but he thought they were weird and if Liam Gallagher thinks they're weird then they got to be worth a look... I can safely say.... yep he's right! 🤣
Liam Gallagher is a burnout failure
Jhonny Cage X Rage well said
so happy they’re receiving the attention they deserve
i didn't think i'd get goosebumps from music ever again
Beavis is CRUSHING it up there
They just released their debut album and i already can't wait for the next release. God damn it i love these guys.
Watched all the others...never heard any of them before...these guys head & shoulders above the others. Should of won.
have
Yh slowthai, idles or black midi. Definitely not dave but it's the bbc and they've got to be PG as possible I guess
Wow the drummer has a shirt on for once.
Obviously this band is 100% jam up. They play extremely well together… great chemistry for sure. The timing they keep is insane and it’s spot on. For a band to be full on jamming then come to abrupt silence with every instrument perfectly timed is not easy to do. It’s not just stopping altogether, they resume back to full on chaos one time and they do it multiple times. My point is this band very tight knit and technical... i mean tight tight tight. If I had to guess, I’d definitely say they been making music together since they were kids… or at least half of them.
With all that being said, I understand the magnitude and complexity of their instrumentals. It’s insane how precisely executed and on time they are with each other. Now to my point… I wanna like them but I just can’t feel them. I don’t know what this.
They met at music school so not playing together that long
I like how he uses a whole SP-404 as a pedal
I was in the youtube recommendations, and my cat accidentally put her paws on the computer and the result was this video and i just want to say
WHAT A MAGNIFICENT PURPOSE

Defiantly the most original of this years nominees.

FIBONACCI SEQUENCE
IT IS A FIBONACCI SEQUENCES
That’s funny as hell because Geordie is a big boxing fan.
And Usyk
This scratches my brain real good. The sound is just. Yes.
I hope they do more TV performances, this one was incredible.
They should’ve ducking won I don’t even care this performance like all was characteristic as hell and the fact that they absolutely nailed it in sense of the music they were playing and the atmosphere they created with the audience consisting of people sat at tables In suits and dresses is frankly amazing
I sat there like I swear if fucking dave takes this out of all these amazing artist I'm losing all faith in this award...little did I know. Dave was gonna take it
I dont even remember who won... but this is unforgettable
No Means No and Primus having a baby and throwing it in the washing machine on spin dry.
@@kevinquandt5773 I was getting Lard/Jello Biafra flashbacks.
Also strong Slint vibes.
Mike Patton
From the breakdown til the end it felt like primus and ratm had a fucked up incest baby
I get major NomeansNo vibes from Near DT, MI. Reminds me of the song Dad
Midi is such a great drummer
LOLLLLL😂😂😂😂😂
this track keeps on growing me, it's so grotesque in so many ways, especially the vocals, which i wasn't a fan of at first, but i love this now
This is what edging feels like.
This is art.
Biopath oath
Harry_TC I just saw this LOL
It was shocking watch new wave like DNA in 2019. That performance was great, and the last line of bass too
How can something be so tight yet so loose at the same time? Majestic stuff.
the ending is magnificient!
SO MAGNIFICIENT !!!!
flashbacks to randomly catching Radiohead playing the National Anthem on SNL when I was 9 and up way past my bedtime. fantastic.
I found this yesterday and i'm absolutely fascinated by their sound.... in a good way
3 years later they are so much better. They've come such a long way
Matt moves with a purpose
"Guys, How many of you took acid tonight?"
"None of us, sir"
"Ok.....NEXT!"
me parece impresionante que cada vez que escucho un vídeo de esta canción en vivo suena completamente diferente. me encanta.
I just noticed at 3:13 when Matt does the front flip, Geordie perfectly times the “pose” in “purpose” to when Matt lands
