Johnny Hollow

Neat website for the band Johnny Hollow. Kind of w creepy goth/industrial/something or other band, but neat music and website.

Wikipedia describes them as:

Johnny Hollow is a cello rock band currently based in Guelph, Ontario in Canada. The band has been described as “Gothic chamber music for the 21st century” and it combines electronica, gothic, and classical music styles among others and also includes keyboards and vocals alongside the cello.

Their website is really nicely, artistically done and has won several awards. I stumbled on them playing the A Murder of Scarecrows flash game, which is also very beautifully done, if not terribly exciting, and uses their music as a soundtrack.

Here’s a couple of screenshots of the game for anyone who is interested.

Anyway, at their website they have a riddle game set up where you can download mp3s of their music and wallpapers if you answer the riddles correctly. Pretty cool I thought. Free music for answering some riddles.

Here’s their website:

Let me know in the comments if you need help with the riddle answers =)
