With their restless and enigmatic spirit, Squid have quickly become one of the UK's most talked about bands. Returning to Cardiff to perform tracks from their latest album O Monolith.
O Monolith follows on from their 2021 critically acclaimed debut album Bright Green Field which reached #4 in the UK album charts. Like its predecessor O Monolith is dense and tricksy – but also more warm and characterful, with a meandering, questioning nature. Teeming with melodic epiphanies and layered sounds, O Monolith is a musical evocation of environment, domesticity and self-made folklore. The record captures modern anxieties and foreboding futures and warps them through a distinctly English lens.
The album is a reflection of the outsized progression of a band always looking to the future. O Monolith is vast and strange; alive with endless possible interpretations of its inner mysteries.
Geordie Greep is no stranger to Llais, last performing at the festival in 2022 with an unforgettable set from his band black midi. This time he returns with his mysterious new solo project and if it’s anything like black midi, expect the unexpected.
