The Black Heart Gospel

It has been less than six months since members of THE BLACK HEART GOSPEL came together and played that first note, that first snare hit and the first word was written. They have since written and recorded 4 award worthy songs with a chemistry that can only be challenged by whatever it is that fills the air by exit 14 on the NJ Turnpike. Although Gospel is still in it's infant stage, these guys have been a staple in the NJ scene since the late 90's.

Wasteland America (CD) is currently underway in the re-write department and is receiving a 2014 facelift. “Dr Frankenstein had his monster, we have ours. Just because it died doesn’t mean it can’t be brought back”, Pete said with a laugh. The album includes the political title track “Wasteland America”, and the empowering, anti-bullying “Scary” which was called SUPERB by EC Metal Words. Also included are Before My Eyes, the bands darker view on life and death and the drama fueled ass kicker “The Growing Unknown”, rated EXCELLENT by BraveWords and Bloody Knuckles. TBHG and Wasteland America will stand among today’s best with it’s can’t miss infectious rhythms, catchy hooks and intelligent song writing. Hands down, one to be reckoned with. To be continued......

On how the band came about, from their recent interview in ITN Magazine:

 Pete- I was in a band with all these guys at one point or another. Each band had its run, each band had its highs and lows. It was months after the last band Mark and I was in. I remember not much going on, just working on a new song and I thought, what if I could take the best parts of my past bands and put together something great (luckily these guys went for it).

 Stan- A few months back Pete and I were entertaining the idea of writing together and decided to put it into motion. He then pulled in Mark and Todd and the band was formed shortly after the 2nd song was written.
