The Profile

Black Marble is the American cold wave/minimal synth project led by Chris Stewart. Debuting with A Different Arrangement (2012), the project continued with It's Immaterial (2016), Bigger Than Life (2019), and Fast Idol (2021), blending analog synth textures, post-punk shadows, and melodic synth-pop.

Founded by Chris Stewart in the United States; active since 2012 with releases on labels including Hardly Art, Ghostly International, and Sacred Bones.

Three DeBaser reviews trace Black Marble’s move from austere cold wave toward warmer synth-pop hues. Writers praise the inescapable melodies, human warmth through machines, and 80s influences (New Order, Cure, Joy Division). Overall sentiment: decidedly appreciative, with A Different Arrangement singled out as a high point.
