About Me

-----BLACKMAIL 4 Soulful young men from Detroit serving up a Lethal Dose of Funk-Infested hard rock. The band formed in late 2005 after a few informal basement jams on some Hendrix,U2 and Alice in Chains. Working up a set of original material the band set upon gigging hard and developing a local following. At the bands frequent Detroit area club apperances Ghettorock jams like Clown of life,2lonely and Justify have crowds headbanging,dancing and moshin often within the same song. Blackmail is anchored by the "THUNDERING" Bass of Akmed ELshabazz and the "Hard Funk-Filled" drumming of Gabe Gonzalez of (Enemy Squad and The P-FUNK ALL STARS). It lays a heavy groove for guitarist Mike Brooks to provide some Atomic Blues riffs.The Blackmail Groove is topped off with the "Ghettofied" Mick Jagger meets Iggy Pop Stylings of Wild Frontman Mark Charles. The bands 1st CD has already gotten airplay on both of Detroits top Rock Stations. The future is looking Bright for Blackmail and thier of brand of Ghettorock. MySpace Backgrounds..
