Black Holes is the lead track from my debut EP -  a punchy grunge song about the many lost lives that have slipped through the cracks of history; through wars, in institutions, religion and capitalism, and man’s general inhumanity to man. 

The Black Holes EP was released on Monday 23 February 2015 through R*E*P*E*A*T Records. Buy now: https://gavinchappellbates.bandcamp.com
