Okayafrica Audio: BLK JKS - "Nare"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

BLK JKS have made a few adjustments to their lineup and dusted off a never before heard demo entitled "Nare", produced by drummer Tshepang Ramoba. The South African rockers deliver a haunting 10-minute track with a decidedly slow burn. The distortion and layered vocals on the creeping lullaby infuse "Nare" with a jarring hyper-emotional tone and the same kind of dizzying, glitchy energy that often accompanies white noise. Check the track below to listen to "Nare." Get more on BLK JKS and a full breakdown of their latest track via Okayafrica. Stay tuned for more.
