Infamous and prolific Cleveland cult, MIDNIGHT, will unleash its sixth full-length, Hellish Expectations, on March eighth by way of Steel Blade Information.
One-man-army, Athenar, has been churning out an ungodly racket, dropping numerous demos, splits, and EPs for over 20 years, finally slaying the steel/punk underground along with his personal, extremely addictive model of lust, grime, and sleaze. Filthy, belligerent, and unapologetically obnoxious, MIDNIGHT makes music to begin fights to and in 2024 Athenar returns with Hellish Expectations, a ten-track sonic assault of blackened heavy steel nefariousness.
“It’s a knuckle dragger with a fats cutoff,” elaborates Athenar, “Pure testosterone meat. In all probability probably the most concise and straight to the purpose MIDNIGHT album to this point, and all written in a weekend. The album was written on pure response upon leaving the studio after listening to uncooked tracks from the earlier album Let There Be Witchery. The ultimate mixture of that album was good, however on the time of laying it down within the studio, I didn’t like what I used to be listening to and demanded a brand new leviathan of an album to be written that weekend.”
Prematurely of the official unveiling of Hellish Expectations, MIDNIGHT has dropped the report’s first single, album nearer “F.O.A.L.” (AKA “Fuck Off And Reside”), alongside an accompanying video.
Proclaims Athenar, “‘Fuck Off And Reside’ is an ode to the individuals who peacefully wish to die to flee the realities of life, whereas they need to actually dwell and undergo.“
