BLK JKS Abantu/Before Humans Double-Sided and pulling this record togetherThe story of BLK JKS reads like a veritable rocknroll legend. For a couple of years around the end of the 00s, the enigmatic South African rock quartet was the darling of the underground scene. Apparently discovered by Diplo in SA, they went on to meet and befriend everyone from The Mars Volta to TV On The Radio, two bands they were often compared to. They jammed with The Roots, snapped pics Pharrell Williams and hung out with Lou Reed at the SXSW
