About Me

'Blackhole Scenery' started out as a punk band going by the name of 'State The Obvious', yet after a decision for a change in style we became who we are today. Of course we have had a change of name 2 new members and a lot more experienced. We are a metal influenced post-hardcore band from the Leeds area and have been playing for a little over a year now.

We're currently looking for gigs, so if you need a band to play then give us a shout.
Want to gig with us? or us to play? Message us! We'd love to play whatever genre you are!

In the past we've shared stages with such great acts as:

The Downside, Munition, Gunshot Residue, Marrizon, Big Jesse, Boom Raiders, For Death And Tragedy, Forever Falling, Obsessive Compulsive, Cotheria

Listen to our songs and tell us what you think!

Come to our next gig!
