Album Info
Released independently by the band in 2026, Grave Robber return with "Black Roses," a four-song Christian horror punk EP that channels gothic atmosphere, macabre theatre and spiritual tension into one of the year's most distinctive underground statements.
"In 2026, the Christian horror punk scene has no shortage of spectacle or shock value. But only Grave Robber, standing tall in their macabre regalia, can turn a four-track EP into an existential wake-up call. "Black Roses" isn't just another addition to their two-decade discography—it's a statement about surviving the night, about faith that withers and blooms, about hope that thrives on the edge of the grave.
Released on Friday, March 13th—a date loaded with superstition, "Black Roses" is as much about transformation as it is about terror. The EP's title itself is a paradox: black roses, in gothic lore, symbolize both mourning and rebirth, death and elegance, loss and liberation. Grave Robber leans into this tension, crafting a record that's as melodically infectious as it is thematically unsettling. If you thought Christian punk had nothing left to say in 2026, "Black Roses" is here to haunt your certainty."
