Black Honey Cult

The story begins in the 90's when Johnny DeVilla and Jake Cavaliere first
crossed paths, performing in various bands . Spencer Robinson
joined forces with Jake and Johnny in The Lords of Altamont, solidifying a creative bond
that has endured for decades. Over the years, this trio found themselves collaborating
time and again, refining their chemistry and exploring new sonic landscapes.
It wasn’t until 2010 that Black Honey Cult began to take shape, though the journey to a
definitive lineup was a winding road. After several incarnations, the band finally
coalesced into its current form with the addition of Garey Snider on drums, and Travis
Petersen on guitar. Drawing inspiration from pioneers like The Velvet Underground and psychedelic icons, The 13th Floor Elevators, Black Honey Cult infuses their sound with shades of early
goth, post-punk, and krautrock. The result? A hypnotic, genre-defying blend of dark,
atmospheric psychedelia that transports listeners to another plane - like dropping LSD
on Mars.
The band’s sound was brought to life by the legendary Paul Roessler (of Screamers
and 45 Grave fame) at Kitten Robot Studios, a perfect match for their haunting and
transportive vision. Black Honey Cult stands as a testament to years of collaboration,
creativity, and perseverance, offering an immersive experience for those ready to step
into their enigmatic world.
