"953" is a song by English rock band Black Midi. It is the opening track of their debut studio album, Schlagenheim.

Said to feature "one of the hardest hitting lead guitar riffs in recent memory" by Paste Magazine, "953" has garnered acclaim, being featured on several year-end lists, The New York Times' list of "25 Songs That Matter Now"[1] and placed at 143 on Stereogum's list of the 200 Best Songs Of The 2010s.[2]

But that grand rubato at the end of “953,” the riff becoming slower and slower by pure feel — that’s something that feels untouched by a machine. [...] It suggests something both obvious and inevitable: In a genre­less future, alternative music won’t be a response to what is popular — but an attack on the computational nature of music itself.

– Jeremy D. Larson, The New York Times[1]
