The Dark.FM

THE DARK.FM occupy a space that has been begging to be occupied within heavy music. A bridge between sounds, communities and cultures that has been ready and waiting for someone to build it. What started as a collaboration between vocalist Craig Johns Jr. and guitarist Alan Ashby that transcended music quickly became about appreciating not just moments in time, but how worlds are built. From flicking through old PlayStation magazines to grasp the visuals that defined the beginning of the Millennium to scouring Rick Owens collections and pondering which daring pieces best represented their intent, the pair quickly found that the strands connecting their passions for music, fashion, and film were deeply intertwined.
