2022 BIOGRAPHY


Debut single ‘Sorrow’ premiered on Metaltalk.net to great acclaim: hailed and shared by members of Rob Zombie, rotated on Scuzz TV and featured in Bass Guitar Magazine. ‘Ghost in the Glass’ followed, winning public praise from The Mission and Therapy? and garnering over 150,000 Spotify plays. Diamond Black soon signed a worldwide deal with the legendary Cargo/Livewire Records, releasing their searing, seductive single ‘The Scarlet’, which received public praise from The Birthday Massacre and Lord of the Lost, with the sensational video clip winning first place in both the New York Cinematography Awards and Paris International Music Awards. This spiral of success caught the attention of United Talent Agency, signing Diamond Black to their roster, alongside such luminaries as Alterbridge, Alice Cooper, Katatonia, Killing Joke and Bullet for My Valentine.

AND THE WINNER IS…


Announcing the winner of our “If You Kill My Demons” art competition: Viktor Pedersen! Viktor work will be a key focus in the lyric video for our next single, “If You Kill My Demons”. We felt this masterfully rendered piece successfully conveyed themes of death, vulnerability, isolation, addiction and fragmenting identity, all of which are central to the song. We like the ambiguity of gender, age, race, culture, sexuality and even temporal placement, all of which make this art universally effective. The subtle window frame in the background is such a tasteful and evocative way of both creating a sense of space and of metaphorical entrapment. What appear to be bejewelled eyes adds another layer of intrigue, and the DB logo on the mirror is a nice touch. Congratulations, victorious Viktor! We’re truly humbled by how much time, thought and heart you all put into your artwork, so we have chosen a number of our other favourites in the gallery below. Seeing how you interpreted…

Sorrow


The desperation and lies, A slowly fading disguise, And words are so contrived. Drawn out in tragic filigree Learning the syntax of grief, Forgot what daylight used to mean. I can’t reach the life before. Sorrow, My darkest star; the one I follow: Sorrow. All those meanings set in stone You thought couldn’t erode, Worn-out years ago. This jagged language of the crash, Voices shatter like glass, Just fragments of the past. I can’t reach the life before. Sorrow, My darkest star; the one I follow: Sorrow, Dead constellation of tomorrow, Sorrow.

The Scarlet


Like an intake of breath, She is quietly drawn, To the place of regret, And surrenders it all. Is this true? Is it right? Were you waiting, waiting for this moment? Is this you? Is it life? Are you fading, fading in this moment? So have you ever been this low before? Have you ever been this close to the truth? (Scarlet, scarlet, scarlet) Have you ever been this close to the truth? Like a work of art, She is tenderly drawn, To the chambers of your heart, ‘Til the scarlet dawn. It’s true – all my life. Have you ever been… ? Never been this close to the truth.
