Black Map is an American rock trio that emerged from the vibrant music scene of San Francisco, California. Formed in 2014, the band unites the talents of guitarist and lead vocalist Ben Flanagan of The Trophy Fire, guitarist Mark Engles of Dredg, and drummer Chris Robyn of Far. Black Map blends a deft concoction of alternative, post-hardcore, and atmospheric rock, drawing from the distinct musical backgrounds of its members to forge a sound that is brooding, expansive, and thoroughly modern.
With their acclaimed debut album, "...And We Explode," in 2014, Black Map established themselves with resonant hooks and towering sonic landscapes. The band continued to refine their artistry with subsequent releases such as 2017's "In Droves," which further cemented their place in the rock genre with dense guitar work and lyrical depth. Their 2021 offering, "Melodoria," finds the band at the peak of their creativity, showcasing their capacity for melody-laden choruses and robust dynamics. Songs like "Super Deluxe" and "Left For Dead" underscore Black Map's evolving legacy, as they dynamically balance the heavy and the hypnotic, appealing to fans of intricate rock music with a shadowy edge.
