American rock project led by Wes Borland, originally formed as a supergroup involving contributors such as Danny Lohner, Josh Freese and Josh Eustis; debut album Cruel Melody was released in 2007.

Cruel Melody was released on Ross Robinson's I Am: Wolfpack label with Ryko licensing for Europe. The project began with several notable collaborators and later featured Borland as the primary creative force.

DeBaser reviews praise Black Light Burns' albums for their blend of industrial, alternative and electronic rock. Cruel Melody (2007) is frequently highlighted for its depth and guests. The Moment You Realize You're Going to Fall is noted for a more personal, refined sound and Wes Borland's central role.

For:Fans of industrial and alternative rock; followers of Wes Borland and experimental rock projects.

 Anyone expecting a simple side-project or something similar will be quite disappointed because this is truly an outstanding album that requires a few more listens, so stay comfortable on the couch when you press "play."
