Black Dove
Creating a fusion of Classic Rock and Classic Metal, Black Dove is trying to bring back the talent in music. Blowing away repetative 3 chord progressions and adding in face melting solos in their place. No more annoying, high-pitched lead singers, watered-down guitar players, and off beat drummers. We're going to bring back REAL rock to this music industry one way or the other.
