| The Blank Theory > Albums & Lyrics |
For The Blank Theory, the language of assaulting guitars and grooves underpinning melodic and cerebral melodies remains the essential medium to communicate in a world that has become fragmented and fraught with the pains of modern life.
Four and a half years ago The Blank Theory played their first show at the underground performance space The Cold Room. With a month of practice behind them, a certain groove was achieved, a hint of transcendence in the midst of their inexperience. It was enough of a hint for the band to continue and work their asses off to hone their craft to a crisp perfection. The result is 13 songs of hard-edged grooves mixed with emotionally astute songwriting contained on their debut album "Beyond the Calm of the Corridor", released September 24th on Scratchie/New Line Records.
Growing up in Chicago the members of The Blank Theory have know each other for most of their lives, the brothers Leone are, in fact, identical twins. The twins always knew Michael as a musical prodigy. He had been playing guitar since age 10, practicing the riffs of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin and burning with the need to make music his life. Following a few years in college the two twins returned to Chicago where they sought out Michael and found that, despite the years of separation, the three shared a common musical vision and more importantly, a shared outlook on the social world. When the three later brought in drummer, James Knight and keyboardist Shawn Currie, The Blank Theory was born.
