Nicola Vinciguerra is a one man Italian art / noise factory and a damn nice guy as well.

WARNING: Most of the following links are NOT work safe.

Here's his official website: www.nicolavinciguerra.com and general MySpace page.

He has many of his various experimental noise projects on MySpace but FECALOVE is a good one to start with. I can personally testify that the FECALOVE CD "Like a Dog" is arguably the most powerful noise release to come out of Italy in many years. It has some very beautiful yet disturbing artwork as well. You can get it over here at Bloodlust!

Here's an interview with Nicola on the same blog.

Finally, here's a recent live video:

Hell's Furnace Metal Works

"Sadomancer"


"Scavenger"


"Capircornus"

The man behind Hell's Furnace, J. Stillings, is also an accomplished experimental noise musician. Check out his project Steel Hook Prostheses here.

UPDATE 2.14.11 - The Hell's Furnace MySpace is now inactive. If someone knows a current link please get in touch.

Nature Comes To Me In Nature

Less than 24 hours in existence and here we have the first Colors of the Dark post!

Above is an excellent video by Chris M. aka SICK TO THE BACK TEETH.

Here's another video.

Welcome / The Namesake

Welcome to Colors of the Dark.

The name comes from the above classic Giallo Film by director Sergio Martino.

This blog isn't merely about horror films. My favorite things in the creative arts tend to always be dark, weird and/or negative. I am an artist and musician myself and I want to help other similar minded creative people show their work. I also want to make a place for people who enjoy "the beauty in the shadows" to perhaps discover something new. If this blog gets a decent response it could lead to some exciting things.

EDIT 2011 - Well I tried anyhow. Thanks to the readers. A special thanks every artist that was part of Colors of the Dark. R.I.P.
