The band: "The "Carmentis" album is the second chapter of the trilogy started by the band with the previous "Aegeria".
Discomfort, dark soundscapes, all aspects focusing onto loss, mindbreaking suffering and difficult times in life, will go hand in hand with the listener through the whole journey, without mercy.
The album will include important collaborations, featuring Tero Holopainen from the Finnish cult band Callisto who has channelled his visions by writing for the band the song titled "13", and featuring also Mers Sumida, singer of the New York based band Black Table for the song "Patau".

Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta
Oh,the bass driven fury! A four piece band that makes music that is original, powerful and most important of all catchy as hell. There is a thread of sadness that permeates the entire LP, culminating in the track VALUES that is absolutely brilliant. Mostly instrumental with a few vocal tracks, this LP leaves most others in the DUST! CARPAGE
