Fuck Buttons' Benjamin John Power has revisited his solo project Blanck Mass for a new EP, The Great Confuso. The EP, which is available now digitally via Sacred Bones, opens with an eighteen-minute title track split into three parts that features Genesis Breyer P-Orridge of Psychic TV/ Throbbing Gristle fame. It also includes remixes of cuts from the last Blanck Mass release (May's Dumb Flesh LP) from P-Orridge, Dalhous, and Konx-Om-Pax. Listen to the first part of "The Great Confuso" above, and check out the tracklisting below.

Power will tour North America next March, after touring Europe this fall. Find a full itinerary below.
