Blacktop

about

There are at least 3 artists by this name. 1. Blacktop was the first post-Gories project for Mick Collins. While similar to the legendary garage punk three-piece, Blacktop is a clear progression, in terms of musicianship and songwriting skill, for Collins and is also the beginning of his movement towards noisier material. The band's sound was fuller and more sophisticated, due in no small part to the addition of a bass line and the songwriting input of Darin Lin Wood ( Black Snakes with Richard Kern, Fireworks and '68 Comeback) and Alex Cuervo. 2. Formed in 2003 Blacktop were a UK band with high energy songs interlaced with electronic sounds. The band released an EP with 5 songs including The James Blaze Complex and Every Letter You Write Is A Waste Of Ink. In december 2007 the band announced they would disband and on February 9th 2008 their last gig was played at Derby Vic where free 7" of their single Autosleeper were released to attendees. 3. Black Top is a welcome addition to the live scene, chiefly because their unrelenting pace and speed create a great atmosphere (Gerry Jungen, Arrow Classic Rock) Take a left turn at the end of punk and follow the smoking path called rock until you come to the tombstones of the blues. It is there that you’ll find Black Top, a steaming blues-rock threesome with a rock & roll attitude. Together, Black Top can boast decades of rock & roll experience, a thick skin, bleeding fingers, and vocal chords so gritty you could mistake them for
