Nu gen duo Alt Blk Era are your nightmare upstairs neighbours. Following on from 2023’s Freak Show EP, sisters Nyrobi and Chaya Beckett-Messam continue to defy conventional expectations of metal, injecting thumping dark- pop, harmonious synths and chaotic EDM into their gritty breakdowns.
Rave Immortal is the perfect soundtrack for the mosher who likes to party, a smorgasbord of blastbeats, bounding hip hop, razor-sharp riffs – anything to get people moving, basically. After months spent in bed before she was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, Nyrobi was desperate to express herself - and sprinkling emotive alt rock with rip-roaring electronics was the perfect way to go about it.
