Black Bomb A is a French metalcore band that was formed in 1994.
history
In 2003 the band consisted of two singers, Arno and Poun, the guitarists Scalp and Snake, as well as the bassist Mario and the drummer Hervé.
In 2001 they stepped into the limelight for the first time with their own release with the EP Straight in the Vein . Within two years, Black Bomb A developed into a well-known underground band with around 300 appearances in France .
After the release of their third album Speech of Freedom , it has been on the official sales charts in France for seven weeks. The band's “furious experimentation” makes them stand out from the metalcore.
On the 2005 live album Illicite Stuff Live, there are a few recorded gigs in Saint-Nazaire . The album was released in September while some live dates were being planned. Because of a motorcycle accident of the bassist Étienne, the band abandons these gigs. At the beginning of 2006 they started with the recordings for the next studio album , but paused it again soon, as the cooperation with the producer turned out to be almost impossible. Then they split up with their label.
By working with Sphere, they have started a new management team, which they will place with the Warner Music spin-off Mon Slip . In March 2007 Black Bomb A released their album One Sound Bite to React . The band has evolved both vocally and musically. On the album they cover the song "Beds are Burning" by Midnight Oil , but still stay true to their Metalcore roots.
