Arcana 13 Black Death
Debut album DANZA MACABRA got unearthed on Aural Music in 2016 and the metal press got frenzy as Metal Asylum wrote it will surprise you and continue to pleasantly surprise you. They bring the expected, requisite fuzz and tube-y tones required of Metal dabblers in Doom, occult, and 70s Horror films, but also carry unexpectedly sumptuous vocal melodies and digable, busy guitar riffage., Brave Words added Coming across like one of the more sincere post-Sabbath bands doing a Sabbath thing that I've, well, ever heard. and Angry Metal Guy concluded They know how to write a righteous riff and piece together interesting songs that get in your head and stay for a long while. I've been caught off guard by just how cool and addicting this stuff is. Sealing the deal classic horror poster artist, master Enzo Sciotti, gave his blessing painting the eye-striking album cover and the unique DANZA MACABRA horror show, featuring mesmerizing horror visuals, has been brought live on a set of Italian shows first, then across Europe with label mates Messa. In 2018, horror hero Claudio Simonetti of Goblin, struck by the band's cover version of Dario Argento's Suspiria included in Danza Macabra, got in touch to revise another one of his masterpieces: the main theme composed for George Romero's DAWN OF THE DEAD. The song is featured as opening track in the Special 40th Anniversary edition, out on Rustblade Records. The last gravestone is the collaboration with director Luca Canale Brucculeri that got in touch with Arcana 13 while working on his new horror tv series Black Death based on the same-title comic book. He got captured by the sound of the band and decided to commission the composition of the main theme for the series, that will be released as special edition 7 in January 2020 on Aural Music, along with a doomed up version of Iron Maiden's classic Wrathchild and featuring iconic Artwork by Branca Studio.
