The Black Box Revelation

Who the hell said rock’n roll was dead? No, no, my friends, rock is very much alive and hard kickin’ in Dilbeek / Belgium. The Black Box Revelation are a surprise package of nothing more than two very young guys producing a wall of sound to blow you out of your socks. Jan and Dries offer a mix of dirty garage rock and melodic riffs with drums, guitar and voice as their only tools. They play the stage as if they’ve been doing it for ages.
