Eat Men Eat

Blitz flamenco and noise rock in a blender and you get black midi's 'Eat Men Eat': a force of nature that pulls listeners into a world of godforsaken mines and weapons-grade stomach acid. If there are any other songs that mention Rennie in the lyrics, we'd love to hear them.

The gnarly track takes perverse joy in bodily functions, with talk of burning hearts and bubbling chests throughout. If acid reflux could talk, it would sound like this: "Each day you wake, and each night you sleep/I'll be camped in your chests, burning! Burning!"

Consumption is also the theme of director Maxim Kelly's tactile promo, which sees two cowboys stumble upon a vampire mid-feed. A Western horror fever dream imbued with a love of silent films, it suits the track's chimeric quality.
