The big review: 2000trees festival 2024
These woods are lovely, dark and deep, full of bands that rock and tales to keep, so we went another weekend without much sleep to bring you all the highlights down at Upcote Farm for 2000trees…
2022 Kerrang! Disruptor Mimi Barks is continuing to live up to her title in the NSFW video for ABYSS…
Ahead of the release of her mixtape DEADGIRL in December, Mimi Barks has just unveiled its brutal closing song ABYSS.
With a gnarly accompanying video that will make your skin crawl (but don’t worry: Mimi stresses that “no animals were harmed during the making of these visuals”), it’s yet another reason we handed the artist the first-ever Disruptor Award at the Kerrang! Awards 2022.
Meanwhile, of DEADGIRL as a whole, Mimi shares: “From hatred for myself and the world, narcissistic and delusional aloofness and chaos in my brain, to self-growth through spirituality. From self-hailing to self-healing; this is the final dance for letting go of the past.
“It’s the rebirth of a broken child, a DEADGIRL. Now reborn as a leader, as her own god; indestructible and inviolable.
“This is revenge.”
Watch ABYSS below:
