Description

Locus Noir is the latest musical endeavor from Ben DMN, also known for his work as the frontman of Swiss Death Wave powerhouse SYBREED.
Conceived as a return to the music that shaped his formative years, the project draws it's energy from late-night introspection, creative renewal, and a distinctly crepuscular sensibility. Initially conceived as a solo project, Locus Noir is set to evolve into a fully-fledged band. Musically, Locus Noir blends Type O Negative gloom, The Fields of the Nephilim mysticism, and Paradise Lost melancholy, all infused with a post-punk edge. The result is a sound that feels both contemporary and timeless - a modern interpretation of what Gothic Metal can be. On debut album 'Shadow Sun', band main songwriter and vocalist Ben steps fully into a melodic, haunting vocal register, merging the theatrical delivery of Peter Murphy with subtle echoes of the late Peter Steele. The lyrics move between the esoteric and the intimate: love and death, desire and decay, nocturnal excess and the bitter aftertaste of parties stretching well past dawn.
