The Darkest Music

About Me


This space is ALL about MUSIC!! The DARKER side of music!
There is a lot of very talented but overlooked bands out there that need –and deserve – much more attention and appreciation. They are often forgotten or ignored for various reasons; they don’t fit in, lack of promotion, lack of funds, don’t know the right people etc. The purpose of this space is to support those bands and help them to get some of this much needed attention. I hope that it’ll help people discover some of the amazing bands that are out there. Hopefully they will support the bands they like by spreading the word, buying their albums and going to their live shows – the bands really do deserve it!
Like the name, "The Darkest Music" suggests most of the music is dark and maybe even a little (or sometimes very) twisted but there is also room for the brighter stuff. The genres will be various; metal (in all its shapes and forms), gothic, electronica, folk, acoustic, death rock, progressive rock, classic rock, punk etc.
But you WONT find hip hop, R&B, mainstream pop etc. on this space (so for bands/artists of this kind; please don’t bother sending me a request - I wont approve it!)
MARCH 2008: This month focus is on UNSIGNED BANDS/ARTISTS! The ones you see here are just some of the very talented bands that are out there that don't have a record deal. Please show them your support any way you can!!
