Blackest Ever Black

Cut Hands is an influential artist known for his unique blend of experimental and electronic music. With a career spanning over two decades, he has established himself as a pioneer in the genre. His sound is characterized by hypnotic rhythms, tribal beats, and intricate percussion patterns.

Similar to artists such as Aaron Dilloway and Yellow Tears, Cut Hands pushes the boundaries of traditional music composition. His compositions are often dark and atmospheric, creating an immersive experience for listeners. He draws inspiration from various sources including African tribal music, industrial sounds, and field recordings.

Collaborating with other notable performers like Vatican Shadow and Lussuria, Cut Hands continues to evolve his sound while staying true to his experimental roots. His live performances are highly regarded for their intense energy and captivating visuals.

2LP version housed in high gloss gatefold sleeve. Includes mp3/FLAC download. It is said that the gods of the dead demand you ritualistically commit to each intensely hot beat of the ceremonial drum. Now, here, is the music for their celebration of death, music to dance together with, to oblivion, a music both spectacular and ecstatic where, like never before, the spirits of Santería and Voudou mix with raw electricity into burning diabolical polyrhythms. Festival of the Dead is without doubt the most potent distillation yet of Cut Hands' malign percussive energy, with pieces like "The Claw" and "Vaudou Take Me High" leading the irresistible polyrhythmic assault in pursuit of one thing: a final rapturous celebration of oblivion. Written and produced by William Bennett.
