Friedberg – 'Midi 8'
Alt-rock four piece Friedberg share frantic new single ‘Midi 8’.
Following light, pop-infused offering ‘Lizzy’, ‘Midi 8’ sees Friedberg take their feisty sound to a brand-new level of distorted. Carried by a storm of buzzing synths layered over insistent drums and the steady sound of the band’s trademark cowbell percussions, the track takes its energy and chaotic appeal from Anna’s warped screams – “What if I didn’t hear you, what if I didn’t care? Maybe it’s not about you, maybe it’s just the air.”
‘Midi 8’ showcases Friedberg’s enviable ability to create mind-bending soundscapes. This band is not afraid of breaking the rules or dancing outside the lines. Intriguingly magentic and surging with electricity, Friedberg are a true force of nature.
