Heavy Music Artwork Issue #1 Dark Nouveau
What a great moment this is. Finally, here I am, writing to you all and thanking you for supporting our magazine. The first issue is finally out and we feel inspired, happy and accomplished that we; the metal community; have a magazine devoted to the arts and crafts. Of course, the music goes without saying, but we must remember what makes our culture so unique. Artists and musicians have incredible stories to share; abilities, creativity, passion, talent, etc. and we are here to celebrate this.
We named and themed this commemorative first issue to Dark Nouveau, in honor of the popular and ever beautiful Art Nouveau. The style has become incredibly popular in adorning album covers, so we felt that it was a great place to start. Ghost, John Dyer Baizley, Sylosis, Glyn Smyth are some of the artists who have embraced Art Nouveau and presented it to a new generation of music lovers.
In this issue, and in all others to come, we gather and collect the finest stories, profiles, and interviews to give an intimate experience with the artists and bands. We hope you will enjoy it as much we do!
