Hellfire is the third studio album by English rock band Black Midi, released on 15 July 2022 on Rough Trade Records.[1] The band recorded the majority of the album over a thirteen-day period with producer Marta Salogni, who had previously worked with the band in recording the song "John L" from their second studio album.
Released to critical acclaim, the album was preceded by the singles "Welcome to Hell", "Eat Men Eat", and "Sugar/Tzu", and entered the UK Albums Chart at No. 22, becoming the band's highest-charting album to date. During the writing and recording process, the band experimented with first-person narratives, and expanded upon their sound with the introduction of cabaret, country, flamenco, and show tune influences.[2][3] After touring in promotion of the album throughout the rest of 2022 and 2023, Black Midi announced an indefinite hiatus in August 2024.[4]
