Italian experimental black metal act, Incantvm, have revealed details for Maleficia, the vicious new album to be released in February 2025 via My Kingdom Music. Pre-order the album here.
Says the band: "We reveal today the cover artwork of the album, a great photo by Riccardo Ziosi with Carlotta Vignocchi as evil model, and the tracklist."
Tracklisting:
"Rinascita"
"Donna Prudentia"
"Gli Esorcismi di Canidia e Sàgana"
"Incantvm / Kyrie" (from Mozart’s Requiem K626)
"Diana"
If with their previous album Strigae, Incantvm shaped their black metal with classical music and parts narrated in a very theatrical way, with Maleficia the music becomes the absolute protagonist thanks to atmospheres full of pathos and terrifying perceptions, esoteric ritual sounds, dark sceneries, Doom elements and old school extreme metal, everything their avantgarde black metal feeds on, making of this an absolutely unique creature in the international musical scene.
Maleficia is the darkest and most eclectic manifestation of the creative genius of Vittorio Sabelli and those who walked this way with him into the darkest folds of extreme music, starting from Tenebra (Dreariness) on voice, to continue with Samael Von Martin and Nequam with their vocal interpretations, Lorenzo Mastrogiuseppe, Luca Tiraterra, and Marco Molino with their rhythmic elements.
It is a pure and simple piece of art, an incredibly unique and exclusive album for very open-minded people, a journey that sets no stylistic or temporal limits and that reaches straight into the sick soul of those who can perceive it.
