Estetica Noir

Born in Turin and active since 2013, Estetica Noir develops a repertoire spanning between darkwave, post-punk, synthpop and art rock, with a songwriting-centered approach and atmospheres that are dark, melodic and often minimalist. The Italian project released a self-titled EP in 2014, followed by the albums Purity in 2017, This Dream in Monochrome in 2022 and Amor Fati in 2024. Estetica Noir's music blends cold guitars, prominent bass lines, retro-toned keyboards and a deep vocal, in an aesthetic that dialogues as much with European Gothic heritage as with a more pop sensibility. Over the years Estetica Noir has performed in several European countries, notably France, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Croatia, Hungary and Italy, and has shared the bill with groups such as Christian Death, ACTORS, The Frozen Autumn, Norma Loy, Whispering Sons or Zen Circus. The band has also been programmed for events related to Gothic and alternative scenes, including Wave-Gotik-Treffen. Two Estetica Noir tracks have also been used for the trailer and the soundtrack of Riccardo Iacopino's film Al Massimo Ribasso.
