Kevin Cross, guitarist, singer, and visual artist of Pitch Black has been an active member of the Bay Area punk scene for years, playing in such outfits as Big Rig (which featured Jesse Michaels from Operation Ivy on vocals) and served as one of the founding members of Revelation Records alumni, The Nerve Agents . After leaving The Nerve Agents, Kevin was convinced he would never be in a serious band again. Impossible to keep a good man down, Kevin got together with his good friends Jamie Morrison (ex Screw 32) and Martin Munroe (ex Stressboy ), and the trio blasted out their form of fast, aggressive punk with a horror edge. A recent addition finds their roadie Danny Homer stepping up and adding keyboards to a few songs. Pitch Black 's infectious sounds soon started spreading around the Bay Area and they were playing anywhere and everywhere. The stage show has been winning over crowds everywhere with the pyrotechnics, fire, explosions and more that would even put KISS to shame. The boys have even become the local favorites at Gilman Street and sell the place out every time they play. Pitch Black's first recording was never meant to be more than a demo but turned out so well that it ended up becoming a split LP with The Enemies on Lookout! The next step was obvious. Revelation Records quickly got the band in the studio for a much needed LP. Pitch Black soon trekked down to Orange County in the early days of January 2002 to lay tracks at the much famed For The Record Studios. Locked in the studio for an entire week the band left with eleven of the catchiest punk songs in years. Expanding on their already established sound, Pitch Black mixed it up with more tempo changes and added keyboards for the ultimate horror experience.
