Millpool harness elemental force on explosive new single ‘The Wind’
London’s genre-bending alt-rock force Millpool unleash their fiercest cut yet with ‘The Wind’, a blistering three-and-a-half minute storm of slashing guitars, guttural vocals, and scorching saxophone lines that hits like a livewire on impact.
Fusing the serrated edge of Fugazi, the jagged intensity of Slint, and the avant-jazz energy of Shabaka Hutchings, Millpool erupt on ‘The Wind’ as frontman Joshua Byrne veers between impressionistic reflections on solitude and full-throated release, as saxophonist Alejandro Van-Zandt Escobar wails with visceral, unrelenting power.
Bassist Duncan Little and drummer Ammar Kalia lock in tight beneath the chaos, grounding the track’s whirlwind dynamic with unshakable rhythm and weight. It’s a raw and unfiltered portrait of a band making serious waves on London’s underground circuit; unclassifiable, uncompromising, and unmistakably alive.
