\n QCD has provided the th eoretical ground for the two leading classes of dark matter candidates:
\n\n WIMPS and axions. However\, both have remained elusive to direct detections. In this talk\, I will show that QCD can inspire us further on the quest for dark matter. I will discuss the theoretical resemblance betw een gravity and QCD\, as well as phenomenological similarities between dar k matter and hadronic physics. These parallels suggest that gravity'\;s self-interaction may play an important role in dark matter phenomenology. I will then discuss experimental supports for this new approach.
