Blackoutt premiere a music video for the new single »Abortion« taken from their upcoming album »Madman«

Postojna, Slovenia based instrumental stoner punks Blackoutt premiere a music video for the new single »Abortion« taken from their upcoming album, »Madman«, set to release on October 5th, 2021 via On Parole Productions.

Slovenian heavy rock four-piece Blackoutt will release their new album, »Madman«, on 5th of October with the backing of On Parole label.

Blackoutt start and finish »Abortion« either way, in following up 2013’s »Behind« and 2018’s »The Culture Of«, »Madman« encloses the theme that has served the band’s work up to this point in their career. It’s worth noting that »Abortion« is shorter than anything that appeared on »The Culture Of«, which you can also stream at the bottom of this post, and even a rocker like »Sinister« on that album, or the guest-vocalized closer »Catacomba«, had a different sense of atmosphere. »Abortion« is more punk noise, more about the sheer impact of the thing than the breadth, and so its stripped-down nature suits it well.

Blackoutt is a four-member instrumental grunge stoner rock band from Slovenia who, with its uncompromising riffs and psychedelic guitars, has been paving the way for other Slovene stoner bands on the club and festival scene, both at home and abroad for many years.

Blackoutt are releasing a brand new album called »Madman«, coming out on 5th of October 2021. The release is the final piece of a trilogy called »Behind The Culture Of A Madman«.

A music video of the track »Abortion« is dropping out today and it’s definitely closer to punk rock than dark psychadelic stoner sounds as we are used to hearing from them in the past. Remember: listen to it with the speakers at full blast!

The album is loaded with crushingly heavy riffs, noise and experimental parts. It tells a story of unrest and unease in the band’s trademark grunge/punk style. Although the end of a trilogy the band is far from done. We’ll be hearing more from them sooner rather than later, they say. But for now let’s dive into the foggy atmospheres, drug addiction stories and suicidal tendencies of »Madman«.

The album was recorded at the Studio Trainstation in Kranj, Slovenia and mixed in UK by James Atkinson. »Madman« will be released in Fall 2020 with the support from Rocket Panda Management.

In 2013, the band released their debut album »Behind«, demonstrating decisive development in the band’s trademark atmospheric direction, which is even more clearly expressed on the second album »The Culture Of«, which has been released in 2018.
