EXCLUSIVE DOWNLOAD: Blackmath - Reading Mysteries + Walking At Night

Posted 6/17/2008 1:30 PM by Christen Thomas

Tags: indie, rock, Chicago, experimental

If witchy women doing evil practice Black Magic, unsavory scientist robots in a dark vacuum practice Blackmath, their main instrument a heavy metal abacus and their voices distorted by the whir of jagged blades.  One Blackmath logo is pitch black with the silhouettes of a man and woman in white - perhaps the only survivors after the business end of said abacus slid down and wiped out civilization.  This is music that reverberates with isolation, dust, fire so hot the flames are blue and an apocalyptic speed.  "Reading Mysteries," sounds like trying to decode 0 and 1 hieroglyphics in a damn cave.  Look-over-your-shoulder desperation propels "Walking at Night" down endless alleyways with guitar and synthesizer sirens ringing out in enveloping doom.  The feel good record of the year for sinister androids everywhere.

Sounds like: A Place to Bury Strangers, Atlas Sound, Big Sleep, Battles
