Black then released two more singles from the compilation album Anushilon. In 2002, Black released their debut record titled Amar Prithibi. Between beginning work on the album in the fall of 2001 and its release, they had also released several other singles in various compilation albums. After the album garnered commercial success, Black stepped into the studio once more to start recording their follow up album titled Utshober Por. Notable tracks including "Utshober Por" (the album's title track) and "Shloak" received frequent radio airplays.
On April 20, 2005, Black was returning home after the completion of a Tour in Chittagong, when their bus crashed near a ditch on the road. The crash caused the death of Imran Ahmed Choudhury Mobin, a sound engineer of the music industry of Bangladesh and a close friend of the band. Jon, Jahan and Tahsan suffered minor injuries while Miraz and Tony had to be hospitalized immediately. The band members announced a hiatus until further notice. Miraz was diagnosed with a permanently damaged patella and had to leave the band indefinitely.
Although the band was inactive for a while, they were still releasing singles through compilation albums. After a five-year break, the band announced their official comeback with the release of their third studio album titled Abar, which was released in 2008.[1] Black released their self-titled fourth studio album on August 21, 2011.[2]
