Black Math Horseman is a female fronted mellow atmospheric doom metal outfit that consists of bass guitarist and vocalist Sera Timms, drummer Sasha Popovic, and guitarists Bryan Tulao and Ian Barry.

Formed in 2006 in Los Angeles, they were signed to Brooklyn label Tee Pee Records in January of 2009. The following April, just after a playing the 2009 South by Southwest, Tee Pee released their debut album, Wyllt, which was produced and engineered by Scott Reeder, one-time bassist for stoner rock pioneers Kyuss.

Black Math Horseman is touring europe in april and will also play at Roadburn 2011

"Black Math Horseman = Led Zeppelin's bombast + Black Sabbath's rhythm section + 1970s psych rock dilation + Isis' minimal-maximal dynamics. This is a horrible description, I know. But when listening to Wyllt, it's impossible not to hear decades of record collecting riffling by. Parts of "Deerslayer", for example, could have been on Badmotorfinger (Soundgarden chaneling Sabbath), Ritual de lo Habitual (Jane's Addiction channeling Zeppelin), and, of all things, She Hangs Brightly. Sera Timms' mostly cool-tempered voice suggests Nico on 4AD, complete with ghostly reverb. The gauzy "Torment of the Metals" recasts the Doors' "The End" as Krautrock. But though this record was raised on radio, no cuts are obvious singles, especially with Timms haunting the back of the mix. A college party soundtrack this is not."
