BAND ANNOUNCEMENT: NOTTURNO

February 11, 2022

Hypnotic Dirge is pleased to announce its collaboration with NOTTURNO, a new project founded by multi-instrumentalist Vittorio Sabelli (Dawn of a Dark Age, Suici.De.Pression), and featuring female vocalist Kjiel (Eyelessight), and drummer Sven.

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.

The debut album, entitled "Obsessions" is a meditative trip into the obsessions and compulsions that take shape throughout our lives, the psychological horror, and the curse of madness that lives inside ancient walls, around dark corners, and within all of us.

Over the coming weeks, more details on this album will be revealed, including the delectable cover art, first preview track, and official release date!
