The Black Rhythm is an unexplainable vibe or a feeling that occurs mutually with someone through a musical experience and or through day-to-day life. For example, say if your jamming with someone and you have never played together before. The black rhythm comes into play when your jamming with this person that is feeling you on the same wavelength and wonderful art is projected through the instruments. If the vibe is shared, then you could jam for what would seem like eternity. It's delicious...

In the beginning, Tacon was in cheesy metal outfit called Bleeding Grounds and was desperately looking for a band after BG's split in the summer of 2002. Brandon and Tacon had jammed all throughout high school while Tacon was in Bleeding Grounds. This was the period of time when the Black Rhythm was being created. Last year, Brandon and John continued to play all that they could and was armed with their first demo in the summer of 2003. The buzz got out and people were taken aback by the music that they were hearing. One day John and Brandon decide to play at a little coffee house called the Java Joint on open mic night. Soon after this one session, each monday after progressively more packed. It was at a point where it was shoulder to shoulder, all the tables were taken, and people were standing in the back. Currently, they have released a more refined demo, which is being heavily circulated, playing bigger shows, and still playing every Monday at the Java Joint.

The band consists of a drummer and a bassist. John Tacon is on drums he is 19 and amazing. Brandon Asraf is on bass its good shit.
