PESSIMIST – PESSIMIST
2017-08-21Blackest Ever Black’s chief junglist Pessimist turns in an extended subzero excursion, picking over the bones of skeletal breakbeat and industrial techno to create the most vivid fever of what constitutes darkside drum & bass in 2017.
Captured between a slowly morphing intro and a knife-addled outro, Pessimist’s debut album goes into deep waters with eight shark-like tracks circling up ahead whilst you fall to the seafloor bed of post-hardcore bassline pressure and caustic, choke hold techno-submarine-weaponry.
