The Black Horse is the third chapter in the 4 Horsemen of the Rockalypse. — and this is where the story turns cold.
If the Red Horse showed us war, and the White Horse questioned power and control, the Black Horse arrives without speeches, without mercy, and without fear. This is the sound of death entering the room — not as shock, but as certainty.
This episode of The Rock & Roll Psycho Circus doesn’t glorify death. It doesn’t run from it either. Through carefully curated rock and metal, the Black Horse walks the listener through the full arc: the invitation… the sentence… the execution… the aftermath. Each set is designed as a chapter — from quiet inevitability to violence, from bodies on battlefields to the silence that follows. The music becomes the narrator, and the spaces between the songs are where the weight settles.
