Ho Chi Minh City’s rising industrial metal powerhouse Black Industry has officially released their debut full-length album, “My Tears Run BLACK,” on July 12, 2025. The record is now streaming on all major platforms.
With ten tracks drenched in hatred, despair, and machine-driven aggression, “My Tears Run BLACK” delivers an unfiltered vision of industrial and alternative metal. The band’s signature rawness, equal parts crushing riffs, mechanical rhythms, and venomous vocals, is on full display here.
From the opening assault of “I Want It Black,” through pounding anthems like “Braindead,” “Heartless,” and “Rusted Metal,” to the eerie closing “Melodies of the Damned,” the album captures the essence of urban decay and human ruin.
Featuring the formidable lineup of Andie Christ (vocals), Brian (drums), Jon Apollyon & Bush (guitars), Cbosi (bass), and Richfield (percussion), Black Industry took charge of all aspects of their music and visuals. Produced with Contrek and distributed by Undersouthern, the album’s sound is as gritty and unapologetic as its creators.
The cover art and photography were crafted by the band members themselves, with visual collaborators Ánh Linh and Cherie to complete this dark artistic statement.
For fans of industrial metal, alternative rage, and heavy music with a soul of steel, My Tears Run BLACK is a must-hear.
