History

In 2003 the band consisted of two singers, Arno and Poun, the guitarists Scalp and Snake, as well as the bassist Mario and the drummer Hervé.

In 2001, they entered the spotlight for the first time with their own release EP Straight in the Vein. Within two years, Blackbomb A developed into a well-known underground band, with about 300 appearances in France.

Their third album Speech of Freedom held a spot on the French Billboard charts for seven weeks, and was noted for its "angry experimentation-joy", unique in metalcore.

The live album Illicite Stuff Live from 2005 contains recordings from concerts in Saint Nazaire.[1] The album was released in September 2005 amidst the planning of a live tour. After a motorcycle accident involving the bassist Étienne, the band had to cancel the tour. At the beginning of 2006 they began recording a studio album but production was eventually placed on hold, as collaboration with the producer proved difficult. As a result, Black Bomb A separated from their label.

Through collaboration with Sphere they acquired new management at the Warner-Music offshoot Mon Slip. In March 2007, Blackbomb A released their album One Sound Bite to React. The band had evolved both vocally and musically. The album includes a cover version "Beds are Burning" by Midnight Oil, but they remained true to their metalcore roots.

In 2016 they released their new live album 21 Years of Pure Madness / Live Act and played at Edinburgh Metal Party 2016.[2]
