We were born as Balckfriars Bridge in 2010 then we turned into Horror Vacui after the first gig, even if we love both names, for different reasons linked to their meanings.
Many bands already picked up this name but it has a special meaning for us so we decided to keep it anyway.
We started this band as we all are into goth, post punk and new wave beside the genres of music we usually play (crust, d-beat, metal, punk in general). We wanted to try to play it and not only listening to it.
We are experiencing to play and learn new instruments as well as taking huge inspiration from this band which is at its really beginning.
We released “Black Rivers” demo cd in 2011 and “Can You Still See Reality?” 7″ (L.O.T.D. Records) in May 2012. In the October 2012 we released our 1st LP called “In Darkness You Will Feel Alright” (L.O.T.D. Records + Avant! Records), also out in the U.S.A. on CD on HPGD Production. We self released a tape including the LP and the 7″. In November 2012 Pandhora joined us on bass. We will toured France, Spain and Basque Country in Winter 2012 together with our friends Sect.
In 2013 we toured Europe (Switzerland, Belgium, Holland, Germany and Czech Republic) and played some important festivals (Grauzone, Enemy Of The Sun and Moonlight).
