Expressions Definition
Velvet Cacoon Velvet Cacoon (often abbreviated as "VC") is a black metal and dark ambient band from Portland, OR, USA. The band is somewhat shrouded in mystery, due to the fact that its members created and propagated many bizarre rumors about themselves and their music. Supposedly the band was formed in 1996, although with recent evidence it seems as though Velvet Cacoon actually began in 2002. Due to the amount of confusion (some of which originated directly from the band as a sort of hype-mechanism) and the lack of any significant explanation from the band's members, it has proven very difficult to discern what is truth and what is fiction about Velvet Cacoon.
