In January of 2007, Stict 9 members Lauren Noelle, Brian & David, Were becoming dissatisfied with playing cove song locally in Phoenix clubs. Feeling their collective talents being stifled & wasted in the Phoenix club scene, they decided to call the name Strict 9 quits. Hearing that the name Strict 9 was also being used by another band in another town in the Southwest. Instead of competing for the name but at the same time craving to be more creative with both sound & vision, They formed the new incarnation, And named it, Beautiful Dark. A more melodic, Industrial metal band, with more freedom to combine the use of electric noise & live instruments while giving the audience something for their money with a classy, Live performance worthy of the like of Bowie, Marilyn Manson & Alice Cooper. They decided Beautiful Dark should feature more of of a theatrical type of live show.
Beautiful Dark is an effort to showcase the band's members different influencial styles of sound, Creative songwriting talent & always elementary different styles of songs. "We're songwriters first and foremost", Says Lauren Noelle, Lead singer for the group explains, "When we sat down to discuss the bands future we decided on 2 things we wanted to make sure of. 1, That each song would have a life of its own. Its own personality, Groove & feel. There are sad songs, Love songs, Hate songs, And yes, Even SEX SONGS! Music is the soundtrack to my life, And my journal has become the forthcoming CD, "Dearly Departed" Lyrically, I really got into this CD. I used more imagination on these songs than I ever had in the past". We this band incarnation promises never to be boring onstage or on CD! Backed with heavy sounding influences from everything from Gothic, Neo-Classical, Black, Dark, Melodic & Progressive Metal to Techno, Industrial, Rave & even 80's inspired Rock 'n' Roll while featuring up-front their Sassy, Spririted, Sexy, Songwriter, Lyricist, Guitar & Electric Violin playing front-woman! Beautiful Dark will prove to have some very interesting, Sometimes dark, Sometimes brutal, BUT, Above all, Entertaining live shows that will be loads of FUN!
