Iconic, Italian Gothfathers, LACUNA COIL will return to Australia this October for their first ever Headline tour in support of their 8th studio album, Delirium!
Lacuna Coil are best known for the dual male/female vocals of Cristina Scabbia and Andrea Ferro; a combination that forms the most effervescent one-two vocal punch in rock. Their gothic imagery, down-tuned sonics and creative use of synths created a metal sub genre all of it’s own. One that has influenced several generations of bands who have live in the bands shadow since they formed in 1994.
Their eighth studio album, Delirium, will be released on May 27 via Century Media/Sony Music Australia and sees the band take full creative control over every aspect of the release. From production, concept and artwork, Delirium is 100% Lacuna Coil & the Milan maestros have delivered the heaviest, darkest & most entrancing music of their career!
“Delirium is about the horrors that we must face in everyday life by exploring the unknown, and to one day, hopefully find the cure,” Lacuna Coil
“Delirium is a new wave of confidence, a renewed essence and pure drops of energy sweating out of our pores. I can’t wait to show it to all my friends and welcome you all once again in our family. Trust me, this is a Delirium you will feel the NEED to be part of,” Cristina Scabbia (vocals)
“I can’t wait to see the reactions from the audiences when they hear the Delirium songs played for the first time. Fresh, dark and powerfully emotive all at the same time. The strength and heavy approach of thrash metal from the ‘90s – in a modern style. To me, this is the album that I think will be exciting to both of our older AND newer fans. I’m excited, and ready to have some fun on stage, while we spread the ‘Delirium’ to the people,” Marco Coti-Zelati (studio guitars, live bass)
This is Lacuna Coil’s first visit to Australia since their appearance on the 2009 Soundwave Festival. Seven years is a very long time to wait, but it will be worth every single delirious second!
