After the break-up of their former band at the end of 2007, the Allardson Brothers and Hugo Clarence reunite, forming what is going to be The Black Flowers, a rock band whose music combines the powerful sound of 70’s rock’n’roll legends with the spontaneity of punk rock.
After a few months of rehearsal, the trio welcome Hugo Davis, who becomes the fourth member. In late august 2008, the band spends 48 hours in studio to record their first EP. Six tracks are then sent to Brooklyn, NY to be mixed by producer Michael Di Santo. The EP "Set Free The Devil Inside" is released on the label Shout It Loud records on March 2009.
Three months later , after have received lot of positive feedbacks about the EP from the press and played gigs in France and UK, the band is back in studio to record new material.
"The guys have definitely done their homework for this project. It's invigorating to know that rock 'n' roll is alive and well in France. The quality of the Black Flowers brand of ass kickin' rock rivals such bands as the Muggs from Detroit and The Last Vegas from Chicago. The dueling lead guitars are just one example of the exemplary skills possessed by these animals. I can't wait for them to make their way here to Austin where they will no doubt fit right in. Bad Ass Fellas!!! "

"The Black Flowers have taken off right where the Hellacopters left off, only they have taken an extra dose of their punk rock vitamins. The Black Flowers deliver balls-to-the-wall fist-pumping-rock-n-roll that would make Iggy proud. Their new 6-song EP, including songs such as "Set Free the Devil Inside" and "Keep Coming On", is chalked full of 70's riff-rock and rock anthems with razor-sharp edges. When listening, one must ponder, "Could Amy Winehouse's drug dealer deliver this much rock?" Highly unlikely."
