Sheffield’s Blood Sport are currently touring the UK and Europe off the back of their latest album, Axe Laid To Root, released earlier this year. The tour includes a one-week residency at the Moog Sound Lab in Guilford in November, set to be recorded and released on Moog Recordings Library Label. The fruit of this residence, which will see them use a variety of Moog’s equipment including the recently reborn System 55, will be brought to life at Corsica Studios in London on December 1st in a performance alongside Chicago’s Hieroglyphic Being.
Prior to kicking off their tour, Blood Sport unveiled a video for ‘Reflective Orange’, lifted from Axe Laid to Root. The effort, filmed by Ed Crisp and Phoebe Plomerew, features several members of the Sheffield’s DIY music scene, and as the press releases puts it, “together, they form a sonic mega-structure performing a technoid sucker-punch”. Here it is.
Axe Laid to the Root is out now via Blast First Petite / Hybrid Vigour.
