Black Sanitarium started out in April 2006 under the name of Warhead. The name was quickly changed after a member change and Jack was brought in on drums. There was to be another line up change when Gaz departed in August 2007. We would like to say a huge thanks for everything and good luck to him.
This is the first band for all of us, so starting from scratch we managed to write some of our own material. We have loaded our demo onto the Myspace. These are the unmixed tracks from the recording session in Kendal. The mixed, polished and hard rocking copies are all on our debut album, Falling From Grace. We have a hard rock, grunge sound between Alice in Chains and Metallica and some awesome fans. You know who you are...
Thanks, Black Sanitarium x

With another year winding down to the end comes the end of year awards - and the return of the TGM Awards. The awards are back for its fifth year, hoping to be as successful as last year's.
To anyone who is new to this, the TGM Awards is an annual end of year awards event, which celebrates the best local bands in Cumbria and South West Scotland. And with many local acts battling for awards, there is so much to choose from.
We can confirm that Black Sanitarium have 3 nominations:
* Best Metal Act * Best Gig (w/Wolfzig & Area 5.1 @ Barrow - May 08) * Best Gig (Walney Bridge @ Barrow - Jul 08)
