Noir Noir are a solo project from Spain that plays a mixture of raw black metal, death industrial and darkwave and this is a review of his 2025 compilation album "Black Curtain/Divine Swelling" which will be released on October 17th by Sentient Ruin Laboratories.
Dark ambient soundscapes and synths start off the compilation while the music also gets very ritualistic sounding at times. Whispers can also be heard briefly along with some of the tracks bringing in more of an industrial style as well as the harsh vocals being mostly grim sounding black metal screams.
A lot of the drum beats are also programmed while harsh noises and power electronics are also added into certain sections of the recording. Most of the tracks also sound very different from each other along with some songs going for more of an instrumental direction and when the music finally goes into a heavier, fast and rawer direction a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can also be heard.
Noir Noir plays a musical style that takes raw black metal, dark ambient, noise, power electronics, death industrial, darkwave and ritual and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark and lo-fi while the lyrics cover occultism, ritualism and sadism themes.
In my opinion Noir Noir is a very great sounding mixture of raw black metal, death industrial, and darkwave and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Black Sun" "Holodomor' "Behind The Sun" and "Cycles". 8 out of 10.
