The Murder Capital - Blindness

After broadening their sonic palette on second album Gigi’s Recovery, The Murder Capital very nearly burnt themselves out on the subsequent tour and opted for a fresh approach for the recording of their next album.

Decamping to LA to work with producer John Congleton, for the first time in their career the quintet had few ideas or song titles, instead referring to scraps of ideas recorded on their phones.

In their typically combative fashion, the band fell out on the first day, nearly splitting up but fortunately reconvened to deliver a barnstorming third effort.

No strangers to intensity, by stripping away the extant timbres The Murder Capital found a new strand of it; Blindness purveys an almost claustrophobic sound, truly feeling like the band are in the same room at the same time.
