A few days ago we announced our collaboration with NOTTURNO, the latest addition to our roster, and today, we are pleased to reveal the exquisite album cover for their upcoming album "Obsessions", shot and conceptualized by photographer
Riccardo Ziosi and featuring the model
Michela Suffritti.
"Obsessions" is the debut album of the newest project of multi-instrumentalist Vittorio Sabelli (
Dawn of a Dark Age,
Suici.De.Pression) called
NOTTURNO. A melancholic trip into the obsessive compulsions that take shape within our lives, the psychological torment, and the scourge of madness that takes hold inside the ancient walls of the human psyche, peering around the dark corners within all of us.
NOTTURNO develops its atmosphere through lengthy songs with strong dynamics and pacing, keeping the listener lost in a reverie and crafting an immersive experience at once melancholic and infectious, floating between Atmospheric and Depressive Black Metal, Doom, and Chamber music - intimate and possessing a strong character highlighted by the unique and singular expressiveness of female vocalist Kjiel (
Eyelessight) and organically driven drum work of Sven.
"Obsessions" will be released in a 4 panel digipack with a 12 page booklet through Hypnotic Dirge Records on Friday April 29. We will also continue the tradition of including a free logo patch with the first 100 orders, stylishly embroidered with golden thread and 5 " x 3" in size. (12.7cm x 7.6cm)
