Anthology Archive – Revue Noir
This is another one of those music projects by bands I like but didn’t know they’d done.
Revue Noir is a collaboration between Sam Rosenthal and Nicki Jaine both former Black Tape for a Blue Girl.The Noir is rightly placed as this is as dark as 10 Neurotics. The album covers several familiar songs from a variety of artists such as David Bowie and The Doors taking them to a very dark place indeed.
Think Dresden Dolls, with the lights out, in a mine, painted black. With your eyes closed. Or maybe imagine a dark burlesque evening where everyone there is hedonistically miserable and the stage act sounds like they’re about to break into some weird real life S&M.
That’s Revue Noir. Dark and sinister.
Another hipster album I think. For those wanting to sound enchanting, hip and dark or fans of the sexually charged Dark Cabaret revival of the noughties.
I couldn’t find a video of anything from this album other than this one which, curiously, was filmed at a burlesque evening.
