The sole creation of Steve Mecca, Serious Black is designed to expand and exploit the bounds of electronic gothic-industrial music. Within the framework of this genre, Serious Black takes old-school goth-industrial and applies a sonic defibrillator to revive the jaded listener. After years of exploration and refinement of synthesizer and sampler programming, Serious Black was born.
On the debut Serious Black release, "Barbican", Mecca enlists the aid of Rich LaVere (vocals on “Days of Future Past”) and Qortni (vocals on “The Garden of Earthly Delights”) to further enhance and diversify the audio experience.
Steve Mecca's previous recording credits include Nature's Fantasies with the Tangerine Dream inspired group Malaysian Pale on Fortuna Records and a compilation recording of New Jersey artists with the techno-pop group Chemistry Set.
Enter the world of Serious Black now, where all is seen through a glass darkly. The portal is open and the wraiths of future-retro gothic –industrial music issue forth. The voices are now calling inside your head... And there will be no compromise... |

"What's hot on mp3.com- Serious Black
Fantastic goth-industrial band! The first portion of songs available on their mp3 page reminds me of what was playing across dancefloors in New York City in the early to mid-90's alongside Suspiria's “Now We See The Swine” (on the Stiletto Vamp compilation), London After Midnight's “Kiss” (Psycho Magnet) and Malign's “Skin and Lye”. The second part is more folksy, all and all a great listen!"- Mistress McCutchan, Morbid Outlook (December 2002 "In Rotation") |
