MEET RAVEN BLACK

Raven Black are a theatrical metal act ORIGINALLY FROM LOS ANGELES. Their unique brand of metal - influenced by gothic, classical, and HEAVY METAL music - is the soundtrack to vocalist Raven’s DUALITY, AS SHE SHARES HER STORY OF BEING A HYBRID OF BOTH DARK AND LIGHT.

THE MUSIC

TAKING FROM ALL THEIR FAVORITE MUSICAL INFLUENCES AND MIXING THEM WITH ALL THEIR FAVORITE ART, MOVIES, ETHNIC BACKGROUNDS AND LIFE EXPERIENCES, EVERY SONG IS CREATED TO TAKE THEIR FANS ON A JOURNEY, AN ADVENTURE AND COME OUT OF IT WITH NEW PERSPECTIVE AND UNDERSTANDING. SOME SONGS ARE MELODIC, SOME SONGS ARE DARK. SOME SONGS ARE FUN. SOME SONGS ARE RAGING AND PSYCHOTIC.

BUT ALL THE SONGS TELL A STORY.

UPCOMING RELEASE OCTOBER 2023 Is “RAVEN’S DIARY - THE WHITE ALBUM” a Special Limited Edition Ballad Album dedicated to her Father who passed away late November 2021.

“It’s such a different side of me that I wanted to share with the Rejects, showing them we can all be vulnerable, sad, lost in our grief or depression but ultimately we can find our way out and begin to heal.” - Raven.

THE COMIC BOOK

A GIRL WHOSE INNOCENCE WAS TAKEN AT A YOUNG AGE,, OVERCOMING HER OWN DEMONS, CURSED BY HER PREDATORS, SHE DISCOVERS SHE IS HALF HUMAN/HALF DOLL. THE DOLL WITHIN IS DARK.SHE EMBRACES HER INNER DARKNESS AND TRAVELS WITH HER DEMONS WHO PROTECT HER FROM THE ONES WHO SEEK TO TAKE HER INNER POWER. SHE IS THE KEY.
