Black Time - ICU



Artist: Black Time
Title: ICU
Year: 2008
Label: Skulltones
Tracks: 1.) ICU, 2.) Corpse Life, 3.) Doomsday Parade

I briefly mentioned Black Time when posting The Real Losers a long time ago but this is the first time I have directly posted them. Black Time pretty much came out of nowhere in 2004 with a self-released LP called Blackout doing this kind of blown out and sparse but frequently catchy noise. 


The core of the band has always been singer and guitar player Lemmy Caution. I have a vague recollection his real name is Matthew something but he has consistently gone by this alias. All the rest of the members use aliases, too, and it is hard to tell if there has been a rotating cast or if they're the same 2-3 people changing names here and there. 

This is just one of a ton of good records they've done. "Corpse Life" is a real rocker.
