28 Days of Black Rock/Punk/Nu Metal and Trip Hop

[85 East]

It's February, which means it's black history month. I want to showcase 28 rock, punk, numetal, or Trip Hop groups with black frontmen/women, or guitar players.

As people we are more than just Hip Hop, and personally I listen to alot more than just rap music, especially when I'm working out...

Day 1
Bloc Party
Frontman - Kele Okereke
Song - Helicopter
Album - Silent Alarm

Here for new music. All of my black Trip Hop, Punk, Jungle, etc. is from the 90s.

Check out a new group called House of Protection. Duo. Black guy and white guy. Been all I've bumped for the last 6 months.

Discovered this band two months ago:

The Veldt

This group kind of helped me fall back in love with music again. I have highs and lows because of my kids situation. One night I just walked around smoking blunt after blunt blasting this band on repeat.

Ever heard of Fleshwater? They're one of my favorite bands and I just discovered them last year. They got one Black member but he shreds on the guitar

Vocals reminds me of Gorillaz.

Great post

As a fan of 80s UK post punk scenes my musical pallette was shaped by that time. Every band that had black members of had entirely black bands made feel ok gravitating towards music that didn't have a traditional black fanbase. The Ska/Reggae bands like Specials,Fun Boy Three,Aswad,UB40(before they went karaoke),The Clash,The Jam, Killing Joke etc. I wish there had been more all black bands in that time.

They have potential for sure

In. .... I've always listened to rock, but I was never invested into it like hip hop so I have little contact with black led rock beyond your Jimmy Hendrix, Lil Richard, and more recently Duckwrth. Always been meaning to explore it, but this will be perfect cause I know we already got the natural soul make something sound great.
