Black Pus

Black Pus is the even noisier and more intense solo project of Lightning Bolt drummer and visual artist Brian Chippendale. The project started out as a home-recording experiment while Lightning Bolt was already in a full-swing mode of activity in the mid-2000s, but it allowed an outlet for Chippendale's surplus of uncontainable and unruly sounds. Black Pus operates intermittently, with early lo-fi recordings giving way to full-length albums like 2024's Thrill Jockey-released Terrestrial Seethings.
