FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RAVEN BLACK Unleashes Black Sonata — The Dark Carnival Returns
September 12, 2025 – Out Now on All Platforms
Theatrical metal misfits and twisted ringmasters RAVEN BLACK have unleashed their long-awaited new album, Black Sonata , out now everywhere music is streamed and sold. Dropping on September 12, 2025, this sinister opus cements Raven Black’s place as one of the most daring and imaginative forces in modern heavy music.
Produced by legendary metal alchemist Ulrich Wild ( Static-X, White Zombie, Deftones ), Black Sonata is a journey into the band’s nightmarish universe — a world where gothic fairytales bleed into psychological horror, and every track pulls you deeper into the madness.
Featuring the crushing singles “Cry of the Raven” and “Dead” (both accompanied by official music videos), the album embodies the raw duality of Raven Black’s sound — heavy yet haunting, brutal yet beautiful.
Black Sonata is more than just an album — it’s an unflinching plunge into power, pain, and purge, crafted with the band’s signature dark carnival flair. Fans old and new will find themselves spellbound as Raven Black conjures their most unhinged and ambitious release yet.
Watch the official music videos now:
👉 Cry of the Raven :
“Every song is a chapter in our story. ‘Cry of the Raven’ is the call — the awakening of the darkness within. ‘Dead’ is the purge — the breaking point where there’s nothing left to lose,” says Raven.
RAVEN BLACK are a theatrical metal act originally from Los Angeles. Their unique brand of metal — influenced by gothic, classical, and heavy metal — is the soundtrack to vocalist Raven’s duality , as she shares her journey of being a hybrid of both dark and light. Drawing from a lifetime of diverse influences — music, art, film, cultural heritage, and personal experience — every song is crafted as an immersive journey, designed to leave listeners transformed.
Some tracks are melodic, some are menacing, some are pure chaos — but all tell a story. At the core lies their comic book-inspired origin: a girl whose innocence was stolen, cursed by predators, and haunted by her inner demons. She discovers she is half-human, half-doll — the doll within being the embodiment of darkness. Embracing this shadow self, she travels with her demons, who protect her from those seeking to steal her inner power. She is the key.
