Black Ships

Add Date: November 17

Artist: Black Ships

Album: Dead Empires

Label: Self-released

Genre: Indie rock, Synth

Comments: Moody, dark, and a good album to chill out to...

from the one sheet: ". . . And this particular combination of Black Ships on hand for the creation of Dead Empires -- including Gill on lead vocals, bass, and guitar/synth, Greg Tebbano on lead guitar, lead synth and backup vocals, bassist David Ochal and drummer Ben Patten -- is just the right band to let the public know their area [Saratoga Springs, NY] is the new breeding ground for American dark romance. As songs like 'Aurelian Walls', 'Nuovo' and 'Twice Born' can surmise, these guys are aiming right for the opaque heart of its listener by injecting it with a liquefied form of the Pretty In Pink soundtrack cut with just enough NYS hardcore to give it some serious gravity. . ."
