The Dark

The Dark is a Berlin based rock music project originating in Los Angeles, CA in 2015.
‘Fronted by singer/guitarist/producer Brandon Ashley, The Dark is a sort of “Muscle Car” of alternative rock, a sound machine that leaves no way out.’ - System Failure Magazine.
The Dark music will remind you of bands like ‘The Killers’, ‘White Stripes’, ‘Foo Fighters’, ‘She Wants Revenge’. Their rhythmic section it’s formed by a big, heavy drums sound coming from the stoner school with sexy bass lines performed with a total punk attitude. High gain guitar riffs will introduce you to a wall of fuzz creating a perfect pad for Brandon’s gritty, melodic vocals that will get immediately stuck in your head.
The Dark debut album ‘Live. Create. Destroy’ is set to be released on May 3rd 2018, which is singer Bran (...) Mehr anzeigendon Ashley’s birthday.
“With this record I’m taking you back to the darkest years of my life where nothing made sense aside from pain and self-destruction. I wish to share these words and music so other people out there going through the same path could get inspired and find a way out.” - Singer Brandon Ashley.
“Live. Create. Destroy.” contains eleven tracks recorded, mixed and mastered by singer Brandon Ashley / DTuned MPG at his penthouse studio in Berlin, Kreuzberg.
