Wanikiya Record is thrilled to announce that guitarist and founder of the solo project MaleventvM, Fulvio Milone, has officially joined the prestigious roster of the renowned record label and PR agency Wanikiya Record/Promotion. Originally from Benevento and now based in Emilia-Romagna, Milone is ready to present his latest recording project to the world: a powerful and evocative concept album titled The Ultra Noise.

A Concept Album Rooted in Personal Experiences
With The Ultra Noise, Milone transforms his life experiences into an introspective sonic journey, an album entirely conceptualized, created, arranged, and recorded by himself. The evocative and potent title perfectly reflects the “ultra noise” emerging from the depths of the artist’s soul, symbolizing the reflections, struggles, and revelations that shape both his artistic and personal path.

MaleventvM, a name that recalls the ancient designation for the city of Benevento, is the moniker Milone chose to honor his roots in the Samnite region. The work unfolds across eight tracks, each representing a stage in Milone’s emotional journey, from the genesis of an idea to profound self-discovery.

A Musical Journey Through Emotions, Experiences, and Transformation
The album opens with The Rain of Genesis, a track that signifies the start of Milone’s introspection and self-exploration. It introduces listeners to the world of MaleventvM, characterized by harmonized ambient effects that create a dreamy, profound atmosphere. The following track, Dream of Chords, takes the listener on a whirlwind of images and sounds with dynamic rhythms, symbolizing the tempest of thoughts and emotions.

In Them, the music represents Milone’s interactions with others—those who shape our lives and influence our decisions, alternating between conflict and serenity. Next is Chaos of Symmetry, which Milone describes as a tribute to the inner strength needed to emerge from dark times. Its complex melodies and intense rhythms encourage rebirth, leading to The Plague, where the desire for redemption finds expression in emotive arpeggios and harmonies.

The journey continues with a reprise of Dream of Chords, this time symbolizing a return to transformation—a moment of growth that culminates in The Ultra Noise, the title track and the album’s emotional climax. Here, Milone’s subconscious erupts, demanding truth and authenticity. The journey concludes with a striking reinterpretation of Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode, a tribute to his musical roots that demonstrates how past experiences can evolve into newfound strength and self-awareness.

Inspired and Personal Artwork
The album’s artwork, crafted by Ciro Milone, depicts “the faceless man,” an image with which listeners can readily identify. This undefined figure represents the transformations that shape us and the choices that leave indelible marks on us. The character invites listeners to reflect on their own journeys and recognize their personal growth.

An Extraordinary Artistic Path
Born in Benevento in 1985, Fulvio Milone drew inspiration from a wide range of musical influences, from legendary bands like Led Zeppelin and Metallica to modern guitar virtuosos. Since adolescence, he has cultivated a passion for music, honing his skills in both classical and contemporary rock and metal. His 2004 debut with the metal band Hellvate allowed him to share the stage with internationally renowned acts. Since then, Milone has collaborated on numerous projects, spanning heavy metal to progressive rock, and currently performs in the Black Sabbath tribute band Beard Sabbath.

In recent years, Milone has adopted a versatile approach to music, establishing himself as a soloist and arranger for all of the songs in his MaleventvM project.
