Oct 17, 2006 Black Aria II is a 2006 album by Glenn Danzig, the follow-up to his 1992 Black Aria classical solo album. Despite being discussed in various interviews throughout the 1990s, Black Aria II was not released until October 17, 2006. The album reached the top 10 on the Billboard classical music chart. While Danzig's willingness to experiment for a potentially rigid heavy metal audience is admirable, and while Black Aria does do a good job of evoking a mood of melancholy darkness, it also doesn't make much of an impression, as Danzig largely neglected to compose melodies.

Black Aria II is a 2006 album by Glenn Danzig, the follow-up to his 1992 Black Aria classical solo album. Despite being discussed in various interviews throughout the 1990s, Black Aria II was not released until October 17, 2006. The album reached the top 10 on the Billboard classical music chart.[4]

Music and recording[edit]

The writing of Black Aria II was completed in early 2001.[5] The recording began in late 2004, with the majority of tracks finished by early 2005.[5] Due to the album release date being delayed by record label issues, Glenn Danzig used the extra time to further refine the album and record an extra song.[5]

The subtitle of Black Aria II is Lilith, Whore of the Desert, a reference to Lilith, the first wife of Adam and the subject of the album's content.[6] Danzig explained “This one is more Eastern, because it's about Lilith. It still has a lot of the classic elements I like, but many of the sounds come from elsewhere because of this fascinating story, which has its origins in even older myths and legends.”[6]

Black Aria II is produced, written and - with a couple of exceptions - performed by Danzig.[6]Tommy Victor provides some additional guitar, and Tania Themmen performs female vocals. The music employs various sounds, including organ, strings, percussion, chimes, chants and lamentations.[6] Some of the pieces comprise up to 40 individual music tracks.[6] 'Unclean Sephira' consists entirely of layered vocal tracks.[6]

Discussing the writing and recording process, Danzig stated “I just let the story take me. Each song tells me what it wants. Sometimes I have it all written in my head - every single part. But at other times, I'll be doing the skeleton framework and different parts will come to me. At times, I'll be listening to playback and suddenly I'll hear where another part can go. It tells me what I need to add.”[6]

Reception[edit]

  • Allmusic - 'Far bleaker and more minimalist than its first inception, Black Aria II relies less on string-fueled dread and more on operatic vocals and experimental sounds..there's not a lot to sink your teeth into, but if there were a subcategory in the new age section of your local record store that was reserved for meditation music for the hooded, the damned, and the downright evil, then Black Aria II would must definitely have its own kiosk.'[1]
  • antiMusic - 'Every song and instrument is right on. While some people might feel odd listening to a classical CD that has plenty of weird and demonic sounding chants in the background, I urge you to take Black Aria II for a spin. Black Aria II is a beautifully crafted, spooky masterpiece from Glenn.'[2]
  • Punknews.org - 'The sequel to 1992s Black Aria features a similar tone to its predecessor. However, this piece features less classical music exercises and more dirge-like compositions..It seems engaging standard musical tastes wasn't Danzig's goal here. Instead of creating a good 'song', the album suggests Danzig wanted to create an interesting sonic experience. In place of a clever refrain, the album features an interesting sound. Instead of a snappy riff, a new style of multi-tracking is utilized. The music doesn't drive the listener, as with a classic Misfits track. Rather, it washes over the listener, submerging him or her in a mood rather than a rhythm.'[3]
  • Verbicide Magazine - 'The album is a haunting, eerie disc that requires more than one listen to fully appreciate. Once you know the story (or any given interpretation of it anyway), the disc becomes so much more than an album of creepy music from the Danzig front man, but becomes the soundtrack to the birth of evil.'[7]

Artist Bill Sienkiewicz painted the album's cover art.

Black Aria is an instrumental album composed by Glenn Danzig, the vocalist/songwriter for Danzig and previously of Samhain and the Misfits. Released in 1992, the album debuted at number 1 on the Billboard classical chart.[3] The original release was on Glenn Danzig's own label, Plan 9 Records, and like his Misfits and Samhain releases, was distributed by Caroline Records. The album was reissued in 2000 on E-Magine Records, and a sequel followed on Evilive Records in 2006.

Music and recording[edit]

Aria

The album is largely modern instrumental classical music, and is very dark, with gothic metal tendencies.

Although it was not released until 1992, some of the material on the album was recorded as early as 1987. Select tracks from the album had served as intro music to early Danzig shows, and excerpts of some songs were included on Danzig's first two compilation home videos released by Def American Recordings in 1989 and 1991.

The first six song titles reference a soundtrack to John Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost,[4] which describes Lucifer's rebellion from the Christian God, and his subsequent expulsion from Heaven with the angels who joined him. The final three tracks, written by Danzig while he was still in Samhain, reference Celtic mythology.[4] 'The Morrigu' relates to The Morrígan, a mythical phantom queen. 'Cwn Annwn' refers to the spectral hounds of the same name.

All tracks were written by Glenn Danzig, who also performed all instruments.[5] Engineering was provided by Nick Didia, Martin Schmelze, and Bob Alecca. Female voices were provided by Janna Brown and Reneé Rubach.

Artwork and packaging[edit]

The photograph of Glenn Danzig in the liner notes was taken by Anton Corbijn. The album's front cover is by renowned comic book and graphic artist Michael William Kaluta, who also drew the interior illustrations for Danzig's fourth album.

As the musical content of Black Aria is a diversion from the music of the band Danzig, the album has a written disclaimer to warn buyers that it is not a rock record.[5]

Track listing[edit]

  1. 'Overture of the Rebel Angels' – 2:42
  2. 'Conspiracy Dirge' – 1:59
  3. 'Battle for Heaven' – 3:54
  4. 'Retreat and Descent' – 3:53
