THE DARK.FM

The DARK.FM did not initially set out to form a metal band. Vocalist Craig Johns Jr. and guitarist Alan Ashby, known as a member of Of Mice & Men, originally wanted to create electronic music influenced by film and video game soundtracks. This developed into a sound somewhere between modern metal, industrial, and electronic beats, which the band themselves describe as „late night metal“. In 2025, they released their self-titled debut EP, where heavy breakdowns meet synths and dark atmospheres. With „zippermouth“ and the 2026 release „Thai Angel“, the band continued this approach, placing an even stronger emphasis on electronic and ’80s-inspired elements.
