The path to “Scorpio” has been marked by three groundbreaking prelude singles – “Pity Party,” “Latency,” and the KANGA collaboration “Lonely King.” These tracks have earned acclaim from industry stalwarts Kerrang! Magazine and Side-Line Magazine, resonating on the airwaves of Total Rock & kerrang! Radio, and have all reached Top 20 positions on the German Alternative Charts (DAC). Remixes by Gothminister and Tension Control have further enriched the sonic landscape. Produced by a powerhouse team featuring KANGA, Samantha Togni, and Frankmusik, with collaborative writing by long-time partner Madeleine Wood, “Scorpio” is a sonic journey rooted in Noir’s zodiac sign and the emotional complexities of growing up in Norway. “Scorpio” serves as a cathartic expression, delving into Noir’s personal struggles, insecurities, and societal injustices, offering a transformative musical experience. With genre-pushing sounds inspired by icons like Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Robyn, TR/ST, and The Prodigy, Ray Noir showcases the future of alt.goth.
