Geordie Greep, known as a key figure in the acclaimed avant-garde rock outfit Black Midi, steps fully into the spotlight with his debut solo album The New Sound, released in 2024 on Rough Trade. The record arrives with an ambitious scope, featuring an ensemble of roughly 30 session musicians whose performances coalesce into something thrillingly alive and remarkably cohesive.
The New Sound is a bold, theatrical, and utterly distinctive listen — drawing frequent comparisons to Frank Zappa in its refusal to be tamed or confined to any single genre. Greep weaves wit and intimacy into intricate, visceral arrangements that demand your full attention, balancing the absurd with the heartfelt in a way that feels both completely original and strangely timeless. It's the kind of debut that announces an artist operating at a genuinely rare creative peak.
