Final Shows for 2018 +
New Animated Album Cover Art for End Of This
Wollongong’s CARBON BLACK bring serious noise. This thunderous four piece play a charging brand of groove metal, mashing Pantera levels of attitude with melodies that Disturbed would take to arenas.
Their crushing new album, End Of This, was released in September and the band are wrapping up the year with two big shows this weekend.
The band are also very proud to unveil the new animated album cover for End Of This, made by Glenn Hansen at albumsinmotion.com.
Based in the USA, he's the man behind some amazing animated classic album covers you may have seen, the likes of Iron Maiden, UFO, Kiss, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Ozzy and many more which have been endorsed by the artists themselves!
For 'End of This', Glenn has taken the original artwork by Mike Morphett and given it a demonic spark of life!
