Dark Matter Noise Kill It With Industrial-Goth Odyssey ‘Blackwing’
THE DARK YET HOPEFUL NEW SINGLE FROM DARK MATTER NOISE
"...Sonically speaking, the album’s first single and title track "Blackwing" sounds as though it draws from Ministry, Depeche Mode and early Nine Inch Nails as layers of buzzing guitars, industrial clang and clatter, propulsive and forceful drum programming and drumming and swirling electronics are paired with guttural yet crooned vocals. And although the song and the material on the album is reportedly inspired by a number of very dark things –the dissolution of a marriage, the lost of years of recordings and demos and so on — there’s a sense of resilience just underneath the murky surface."January/2016 - The Joy of Violent Movement
CD Review: Dark Matter Noise "Blackwing"
"...Almost everything on here is in contrast to something else... As much as the synth can take you into darkness, there are piano keys to take you into the light. I might no longer be the person who listens to all of the music I listened to as a youth, but enough of it stuck around for me (Nine Inch Nails, for example-- can't recall the last time I listened to Marilyn Manson though) that I can still hear it in here, haunting me, while yet offering something new that I haven't quite heard before and so in that way it appeals to the current me. It is certainly difficult if not seemingly impossible to find that balance of old and new, but Dark Matter Noise has managed to do just that."April/2016 - Raised By Gypsies

"...haunting vocals and a wall of sound, that surely works. My favourite part is actually the first few seconds, which basically sounds like drums that inmates would play..."Feb/2016 - The Pefrect Scene
