"Resurrecting the good times - Cover of Dark are a five-piece band from Leeds, playing the best of Goth and alternative 80s music."
Black Rain exploded onto the scene with a sold out debut gig in March 2024, quickly establishing a reputation as one of the hardest working post punk bands in the country. On the back of this debut we were asked to play with Auger and Spiritual Bat on the UK legs of their European tours. The subsequent 12 months saw the band rapidly become one of the most in-demand post punk bands in the country. With appearances at Corrosion Festival (Morecambe), Serial Bowl Records (Sunderland), NecroscopE (Coventry), Fulford Arms (York), Carpe Noctum (Leeds), Stripped (Gateshead) and Nightbreed (Newcastle).
In a world of bland manufactured noise, Black Rain offers a stark, unrelenting fresh take on the classic post-punk sound, existing in the space between the aggressive raw energy of punk and the brooding dark intensity of goth. Our self-titled debut album, released on July 14th, has been met with critical acclaim. Baby Step Magazine (15/6) hailed it as “a brutal, beautiful collision of ghostly atmospherics and razor-edged rage…channel the grit of their homeland and the fury of a world on edge. With a sound forged in isolation, anger, and unrelenting honesty, Black Rain don't want to fit in—they want to burn it all down.” Peek-A-Boo Magazine (12/06) further described it as "freshly-sharpened double-edged Post-Punk. Aggressive and unrelenting but with a fresh take on the classic sound …post-punk at its most fierce and unfiltered."
