post-engineering: May 2007

We are poets....
Who love to dance on rooftops...
We watch the sun set down...
We watch the shadow in the dawn.
from: Zeit (7", 2003)

Jet Black released their first 7inch in 2002 on Unterm Durchschnitt. A very intense mixture of instinctive anger and deep-moving screarns. Their 7incher feels like restraintless movings - straight to the point without accepting standstill or resignation. While their hearts beat time Danny, Mischa, Nils and Kevin scream out avowedly that emotional ballast. Feels like a state in motion. 2006 the boys released their first album titled "The Dead End". They present gloomy and noisy orchestral post-hardcore, whose heavy and destructive walls alternate with emo-parts and broad guitar feedbacks, ever changing dynamics and passionate vocals. Lyrics are in both English & German. A post-hc ending, dark and driving. With their album-debut the band split.
