Black

There are multiple artists with this name:

1) Black is the name by which singer/songwriter Colin Vearncombe has identified himself in his earlier albums (and also the most recent one). Dave Dix was also a member of the band from 1981 to 1988.

Black had two top-ten hits in the UK in 1987: "Sweetest Smile" and "Wonderful Life". The album of this name reached no. 3 in the UK album chart, but following albums and singles did not enjoy similar commercial success, despite being critically acclaimed.

2) Black is a band from Bangladesh. Black is mainly an alternative band who sings in Bangla, the language of Bangladesh. The band formed in 1998 with four members - John, Tony, Asif, Spondon. Later the band line-up changed as Miraz and Tahsan joined the band in 2000 and Spondon and Asif left the band. Their first song was released in an underground mixed album "Charpotro", their first solo album Amar Prithibi was released in 2002 which is still a big hit. Their second album Utshober Por got released in 2003. Both albums were released from the label G-Series. Though their released music now defines them, and that has been a plethora of styles present in them from nu metal to emo like alternative, they had before that time performed in a lot of underground metal concerts covering the likes of Pantera. They are pretty known for their innovative stances on music and performance.
