Album Description

"Chicago noisemakers Blacker Face sit at the convergence of afrofuturism, punk and politics. It’s challenging — whether you’re ready or not." - Chicago Tribune

"Blacker Face teaches through Myth."
-AfroPunk

"...Afropunk quintet Blacker Face, while no strangers to the far-out, are one of the tightest bands this author has seen. Singers Jolene Whatevr and P.T. Bell are dynamic and precise but unafraid to tread into more caustic territory..."
-Chicago Reader

"The band’s name, live performances, and music are a disorienting ideological pipe bomb..."
-Post-Trash
