A strong European aesthetic combined with a passion for Gothic imagery, art and storytelling led CORVO to adopt the raven as their dark totem. Their name is derived from the Italian word for raven or crow.
Drawing from a diverse range of influences such as female-fronted metal [THE GATHERING, LACUNA COIL], progressive rock [GOBLIN, ROXY MUSIC], new wave [THE CURE, SIOUXSIE AND THE BANSHEES], underground dance and industrial [SKINNY PUPPY, NINE INCH NAILS] and pioneering electronic composers [VANGELIS, TANGERINE DREAM], CORVO integrates and fuses these styles with operatic flourishes in a traditional rock context.
Blending aggressive, avant-garde electronics, horror film-inspired organ and piano, and powerful, passionate female vocals, CORVO's signature sound has been described by peers and fans as "evil opera," "apocalyptic," "atmospheric," "so scary it's beautiful," and "sexy as hell."

The heart of CORVO is the male/female duo of G9 [instruments] and NiNi [vocals, lyrics]. With years of professional experience in a variety of musical genres - including opera, jazz and pop - NiNi brings an expansive vocal range and unique dramatic flair to CORVO’s body of work. G9’s background in symphony orchestra, jazz piano and avant-garde electronic rock provides the canvas for NiNi’s lyrical storytelling style. Their mutual love for macabre imagery and a sinister sense of humor infuse the CORVO sound with all the colors of darkness.
This marriage of beauty and horror, electronic and organic, classical and experimental, appeals to more than just Gothic metal and industrial music fans; it speaks to the diversity of individuals who experience the same love affair with the macabre.
CORVO’s self-produced demo "TERROREYES,” scheduled for release in early 2006, features three fan favorites - “ZANN,” “THE DEVILS” and “FAIRYTALE,” as well as an exclusive CD release of their Halloween club hit “FANTOMATIQUE” as a bonus track.
CORVO is currently in the studio working on their first full-length CD, planned for release in Summer 2006. |
