專輯名稱：A Shared History of Tragedy
As a catalyst for generations of great art, music and literature, psychic pain and anxiety are not uncommon; under the relentless strain of the road, many a rock musician has battled crippling paranoia and dark thoughts. The Black Maria stand out from the pack by creating music of epic beauty and fierce power, transforming ugliness and fear into songs that explode from the speakers with a symphonic vengeance. A Shared History of Tragedy refers to the lives of The Black Maria, in a line pulled from the acclaimed drama Six Feet Under. Vocalist Chris Gray felt it perfectly characterized their experiences, explaining, In the last year of touring, we have learned more about ourselves and the kind of men we are than you could possibly imagine. We have worked, sacrificed, won and lost more than most trying to live a sometimes impossible dream. We shared in all of this together. The Black Maria takes the orchestral elements, electronic parts and off-beat song effects they experimented with on their 2005 debut, Lead Us To Reason and marries them to their hard rock base, creating a gorgeous, layered musical framework that walks the razor edge of rock genres toward their own precise statement.
