CRUEL MELODY was originally going to be an esoteric, dirge-heavy solo project with a variety of singers, but as Borland started writing heavier material, he finally decided to take the reins behind the mike.
From the post-Ramones surf rock freakout opener �Mesopotamia� to slow building confessional �I Have A Need,� to �Lie�, CRUEL MELODY is a 180 degree turn from Borland�s previous work. BLACK LIGHT BURNS� first single �Lie� was the #1 most added single at active rock radio week ending 3/23/07 and looks ahead to touring this summer with new onstage persona for their maiden voyage, boasting a live band with guitarist Nick Annis (Seether), drummer Marshal Kirpatric (Today Is the Day, the Esoteric) and, for now, a laptop to wreak ambient havoc. BLACK LIGHT BURNS will make their first live debut at the NARM convention in Chicago on April 30th.
