A Middle Sex - A Muddled Hex

A Muddled Hex by A Middle Sex

4...according to our on Thu 08 Nov, 2007.

A Middle Sex: 'A Muddled Hex' (Blackest Rainbow) The second installment from BR starts out with what sounds like some spell making incantation, with a spoken word intro that opens up proceedings. Sprawling sound waves make way for clattering drums, scratchy guitars and percussive fills that mix seamlessly into the wind that is trying desperately to creep through our office windows. After the acoustic splurge we get a movement into heavy analogue drones that Ant reckons sound like an even more lo-fi version of Black Dice. To me they sound like out takes from some freeform rock jam.

A Middle Sex? Who the fuck are A Middle Sex I hear you cry...  one of
the best out there bands in the UK that nearly no one knows, totally
ruling Manchester duo of Phil and Karl. Fluxing between minimal scrape
and pound rhythms to noisy tumbling weird jamzzz using there trashed
guitar, drums and electronics, with the odd weird vocal splatter
thrown in.  This is fresh from the jungles of Manchester... it really
gives me a jungle vibe - you'll see what I mean.  Colour sleeve,
edition of 55.
