BIO
Black Hole Empire is an experimental project by the duo Trei Johnson (drums) and Eric Nichols (keyboard/vocals). Having played punk music together in the early 2000s, they have re-united their minds to explore the world seen through the eyes of darkness, creating a blurry new vision of experimental industrial rock music. Having songs like Drip that take you from a steady warmth to an aggressive scream within beginning measures of a verse, building into a powerful chorus only to melt into a heart wrenched piano outro. Their compositions can give a nod to early industrial dance-able bass lines while others will take you on a dark classical ride accompanied with a doom outcry of emotion.
Influences include Skinny Puppy, Ministry, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, Godflesh, The Klinik, Hide, Uniform, Chelsea Wolfe, 3TEETH, JK Flesh, Haunted Horses, Youth Code etc.
