Unsettling UK beatmaker Kevin Martin hasn't released an album as the Bug since 2009's London Zoo, but following last year's Filthy EP, he's now detailed his project's next full-length. Angels & Devils will be out on August 26 through Ninja Tune.
It features a guest on nearly every track, with contributors including Death Grips, Justin Broadrick (of Godflesh/Jesu), Liz Harris (of Grouper), copeland (formerly of Hype Williams), Gonjasufi, Flowdan and more.
The album reportedly draws influence from London Zoo while simultaneously "[escaping] the London cage," offering a new perspective from Martin's new home in Berlin. It's split into two distinct sides: Angels on one side and Devils on the flip. A press release describes Angels as "a collection of heady, dubbed out cinematic blissfulness with a lurking darkness before giving way to devils."
Scroll past the tracklist to listen to the Gonjasufi-assisted "Save Me" and the Death Grips-featuring "Fuck a Bitch." Also below, hear the previously released "Dirty."
The album is available to pre-order in various formats right here.
