Bilmuri is the genre-defying project of Johnny Franck, formerly of Attack Attack! and Spitalfield, and one of the defining acts of internet-era genre-fluid heavy music. Post-hardcore and alternative metal collide with country, EDM, and pop — often on the same record — across a prolific run of self-released albums.

Bilmuri is the solo and band project of Johnny Franck, a guitarist and vocalist previously associated with the post-hardcore band Attack Attack! and earlier Spitalfield. Operating largely as an independent artist, Bilmuri has released a catalog through self-distribution combined with select label partnerships. The project is known for genre-defying releases that pair post-hardcore and alternative metal with country, hip hop, EDM, and pop influences, often within the same record.
Bilmuri's sound resists easy classification. Releases have ranged from melodic post-hardcore and alternative metal to country-rock, electronic dance music, and pop crossover, with Franck's vocal range moving between screamed and clean delivery. The project is widely cited as a defining example of internet-era genre-fluid heavy music.
Bilmuri vinyl releases have appeared in limited pressings and color variants through direct-to-fan distribution and partner labels.
