Italian metal legends LACUNA COIL announce the release of “Comalies XX”. This is not just a re-recording, but an entire deconstructed and remade version of their third full-length record, “ Comalies”, which was originally published in 2002.

Now, 20 years later, this undeniably anthemic Millennial classic in a new guise – produced by Marco Coti Zelati & mixed by Marco Barusso – will be released on October 14^th, 2022, available as Ltd. Deluxe 2CD Artbook, 2CD Jewelcase, Ltd. Gatefold 2LP+2CD & LP-Booklet and digital album, featuring the original and new version of the 13 tracks.

Pre-order here.

To serve a first impression of the new “Comalies XX”, LACUNA COIL  present the first single and video for “Tight Rope XX”, directed by Trilathera.

The band about the album and single “Tight Rope XX”:
“Welcome to ‘Comalies XX’, a brand-new record. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of ‘Comalies’,  we felt this special album deserved more than a remastering. We didn’t just give it a new dress, we built a new skeleton and gave it new skin and a new life. ‘Comalies XX’ is alive and walks alone, this is not a remake or a reboot, it’s ‘Comalies’ on steroids! ‘Tight Rope XX’ and its video are just a taste of what’s coming, and we couldn’t be more proud!”

Italian metal giants LACUNA COIL release their new live track and video for “Veneficium” today via Century Media Records. The track is off the band’s forthcoming live album, Live From The Apocalypse, which is set for release on June 25^th. 

Watch the live video of “Veneficium”, HERE:

“Veneficium is the painful and fierce scream that rises from the darkness. Another day has born and has new hope in it, the poison inside has been defeated and a new refreshed and healed life can start again,” states Lacuna Coil frontwoman Cristina Scabbia about “Veneficium”.

Live From The Apocalypse is the fruit of an unprecedented time. Unlike previous live efforts the Italians, under the yoke of the pandemic, cleverly devised a way for their devoted fan base to hear and see them on stage by organizing a special live stream event performing their latest album, Black Anima , in its entirety this past September 2020. By all accounts, this was no ordinary gig. Even though LACUNA COIL were in their hometown of Milan—at the famed Alcatraz Club—there were no fans to greet them. No roar of anticipation; No claps of adulation; No interaction with the people who had become deeply involved in and had a profound love for LACUNA COIL’s music and live shows over two-plus decades. The live stream energy was different. It had to be. With hearts on their sleeves, cameras rolling, and the world tuning in online, LACUNA COIL brought “Black Anima: Live from the Apocalypse” to life.

 The very special show will be available in various formats and can be pre – ordered HERE.

LACUNA COIL have also recently announced the release of their very own tabletop (or better yet, concert floor!) party game, HORNS UP!. The game itself takes place at a LACUNA COIL show, where each player must fight his or her way to be the first to reach the stage. There will obviously be many “friendship-threatening” actions challenging the opponents. LACUNA COIL band members will be an active presence in the game: they are depicted on the Stage Cards, and each of these will have consequences on the whole audience! The pre-order campaign is live worldwide and as the number of requested copies rises, the project will become more developed, with new events and new expansions. Shipping is available Worldwide until November 2021. Pre-order your copy HERE.

Topping it off, LACUNA COIL have been keeping busy throughout the pandemic with their involvement in DC Comics’ Dark Nights: Death Metal – Band Edition and most recently with their in-game collaboration for Iron Maiden’s Legacy of the Beast. The Dark Nights: Death Metal hit limited series includes a variant cover spotlighting LACUNA COIL, an introduction from the band and exclusive interview. The collaboration includes six other renowned metal music bands such as Ozzy Osbourne, Dream Theater, Ghost and more. Additionally, the band’s involvement in Iron Maiden: Legacy of the Beast resulted in a collaboration that features a dungeon entitled  ‘The Search for the Black Anima’ & The Shadow Sorceress, a character influenced by Lacuna Coil’s interest in the creative force that comes from the ‘shadow side’ and is inspired by their 2019 album, Black Anima.

Italian metal giants LACUNA COIL just recently announced the release of a new live album, entitled “Live From The Apocalypse”, to be released on June 25^th!

As of now the live version of “Apocalypse”, originally released on the latest studio album “Black Anima”, is available on all digital platforms! You can watch the video to “Apocalypse” taken from the bonus DVD here:

“Looking at the sand gliding down through the hourglass… ‘Apocalypse’ is factual and actual in today’s pandemic, though we couldn’t foresee this when we wrote it: the separation, the solitude, the confusion, the resilience. We keep on fighting for our will to survive.“ – Cristina Scabbia

“Apocalypse is usually a huge concept involving destruction or damage and the way the world ends. In our vision,  there’s no big apocalypse just endless little ones. Ignorance, complacency, selfishness alone can bring apocalypse.” – Andrea Ferro

“On one hand, it felt awkward to play for a huge empty room,” tells vocalist Andrea Ferro. “ But, on the other hand, it felt great to finally reconnect with our fans at home and with the people working behind the scenes. A lot of people enjoyed the show—it was definitely a one-off event loaded with a lot of emotions and feelings. Live from the Apocalypse is an opportunity to offer a new release to our fans while the COVID-19 crisis is still a real thing, affecting them and us. The live album represents a unique moment in our career (and life) that will be forever remembered as that one time when we literally ‘rose from the Apocalypse.’”

LACUNA COIL are announcing the Official Lacuna Coil tabletop game, HORNS UP! 

HORNS UP! is a tabletop (or better yet, concert floor!) party game in pure rock style. Members of the world famous Italian band are known for being avid gamers, but HORNS UP! marks their first foray in the Gaming Industry itself. 

The game itself takes place at a LACUNA COIL show, where each player must fight his or her way to be the first to reach the stage. There will obviously be many “friendship-threatening” actions challenging the opponents. 

Lacuna Coil band members will be an active presence in the game: they are depicted on the Stage Cards, and each of these will have consequences on the whole audience! 

The rules of the game are easy to understand, and each game will be able to host a maximum of 9 players. 

The illustrations for the whole project belong to the talented Sara Fornì, who has quite a record for books and games illustrations. This is not the first time the band from Milan enters the geek world: they already made their appearance on multiple covers of Batman comics and they are always present at Lucca Comics and Games events. 

The card game Horns Up! will be made in partnership with Labmasu Games and presented in a pre-order campaign that will be launched on Friday 26th March 2021 HERE . The pre-order campaign will be live worldwide and as the number of requested copies rises, the project will become more developed, with new events and new expansions.
