Traditional Twin Guitar Rock/Metal

Black Halo Photo 2025

Black Halo is guitarist Randy Ellefson and singer Chase Breedlove, who, oddly enough, have never actually met in person. Check out the tortured history behind their collaboration.

In the fall of 2025, the band will begin releasing songs from its debut album, Utopia, which features twelve songs (and two bonus tracks). The concept album tells the story of two people struggling with the promises of the internet age to bring us all together and the reality of it tearing us apart.

The album features guest performances from Dirk Verbeuren (Megadeth) and Bec Hollcraft. The lyrics are already online, and all songs have an accompanying lyric video.
