Ray Noir is the disruptive gay artist kicking the alt-scene in the teeth, fusing metal aggression with the sweat, pulse and drama of electronic club music. Born in Oslo’s black-metal underground and sharpened in London’s clubland, Ray delivers heavy beats, razor-sharp guitars and unapologetic queer chaos for outsiders and misfits alike.
Breaking through with his 2024 mixtape Scorpio (Top 5 German Alternative Charts), Ray earned praise from Kerrang! and BBC Radio 1, followed by the EP Against The Machine featuring guitar legend Steve Stevens. In 2026, Ray leans further into danger, think a gayer, sweatier, contemporary cousin of Rammstein.
Live, Ray Noir is less a gig and more a confrontation, a collision of theatre, fashion and ferocity. With sold-out headline shows in London and Oslo, plus support slots for Combichrist and Die Krupps, Ray isn’t asking for space in alternative music, he’s taking it.

Ray Noir is the rising queer artist fusing the aggression of metal with the pulse of electronic music. Born from Oslo’s black-metal underground and sharpened in London’s clubland, Ray’s sound channels raw emotion through heavy beats, guitars and bold, unapologetic energy. His music is a rallying cry for outsiders and rebels alike.
Ray gained attention with his 2024 mixtape Scorpio - which reached the Top 5 on the German Alternative Charts (DAC) and received acclaim from Kerrang! and BBC Radio 1 - followed by the 2025 EP Against The Machine, featuring Grammy-winning guitarist Steve Stevens (Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, Top Gun Anthem) on the single Razorblade Romance.
★★★★ “A scintillating seven-track journey from sleazy street corners to shady superstardom.” – Kerrang!
“Track of the Week” – BBC Radio 1 Future Alternative
On stage, Ray Noir delivers an electrifying mix of theatre, fashion and ferocity - a full-bodied performance that blurs the line between concert and spectacle. With sold-out headline shows in London and Oslo, UK tours and support slots for Combichrist and Die Krupps, Ray is carving his place as one of the most distinctive new voices in alternative music.
