Paint It Black is a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania-based modern hardcore punk band. Their music is often described as melodic hardcore, characterized by fast tempos, catchy melodies and emotionally charged vocals delivered via shouting and singing. They currently have released two full-length albums, CVA and Paradise, both of which have been on Jade Tree Records.
The band features Dan Yemin as the group's vocalist and lyricist. Yemin is most known as the guitarist for New Jersey's influential band Lifetime and was also the guitarist of another equally influential Philadelphia-based punk/hardcore act, Kid Dynamite. Former drummer David Wagenshutz has also been a member of Lifetime, Kid Dynamite, California's Good Riddance and None More Black, the latter whom is fronted by former Kid Dynamite vocalist Jason Shevchuk. The other two members, bassist Andy Nelson and guitarist Josh Agran, both also currently play in Affirmative Action Jackson, a hardcore punk band based out of Philadelphia. Since the departure of Wagenschutz in July 2006, the band had been without an official drummer, but has been touring with Jared Shavelson of The Hope Conspiracy and None More Black. He has since been added as a permanent member.
The band's moniker was taken from the title of a song by the Rolling Stones.
