Oct. 30 2014, San Francisco – Black Map, the Northern California trio from members of Dredg (Mark Engles), Far (Chris Robyn) and The Trophy Fire (Ben Flanagan) have released a video for "I'm Just The Driver" via Metal Sucks (http://www.metalsucks.net/2014/10/29/video-premiere-black-map-im-just-driver/).
 
The band is streaming their debut album, ...And We Explode, via Revolver (http://www.revolvermag.com/?p=67283).
 
New Noise Magazine described the outfit's music as "bass heavy grooves, catchy drum work, and vocals that straddle the fences of ambient, pop punk, and alt metal" while hometown alt-weekly, the San Francisco Bay Guardian said the band creates “epic, guitar-driven, smart-art-rock-meets-anthemic-metal.”
 
The twelve-song record was recorded at Hellam Sound in Oakland, Calif. with Producer Aaron Hellam, who had worked with The Trophy Fire in the past.
 
The band is on the road with Chevelle, returning for a trio of west coast shows in December.
