Description
Wunderhorse - Midas
"I want it to feel like you're right there in the room with us." And in 10
songs and 40 minutes, Wunderhorse capture the raw power and energy
that has set them apart as one of the most formidable live acts of recent years
With rugged hooks, unfltered noise, and ferce melodic sensitivity, Midas rips up
the script of traditional second albums and establishes the band as an endlessly
addictive and rousing generational talent.
In late 2022, the release of their debut album Cub saw singles 'Purple' and 'Leader
of the Pack' dominate radio airwaves. Landmark performances flling
Glastonbury's Woodsies Tent (FKA John Peel Stage) and selling out London's
Kentish Town Forum months in advance followed tours with Pixies and Fontaines
D.C. and stadium appearances with Sam Fender, signalling the band's arrival as
one of the most prominent and exciting new guitar acts in the UK.
With Grammy Award- winning producer Craig Silvey (The Rolling Stones, The
National, Florence + The Machine) on board for their sophomore record, the band
looked to do something different. Their goal - in the very same studio that Nirvana
put In Utero to tape and PJ Harvey recorded the Mercury Prize-nominated Rid of
Me - was to push themselves outside of their comfort zones.
"There's absolutely no faking on this record," ends Slater, "it's not supposed to be
perfect; it's supposed to be a snapshot, even if it is a bit of an ugly portrait. That's
how it was then, and that's how you're gonna see it." And it sounds like you're
right there in the room with them.
