Brucia Records is proud to present “Se Solo Potessimo Cadere”, the third release by Experimental / Dark Ambient duo PSEUDODOXIA. The album is now available on digital and a hand-numbered run of 4 panels digipak CDs limited to just 33 copies. Stream it on Bandcamp at THIS LOCATION.

“Se Solo Potessimo Cadere” is a terrifyingly dark album combining caustic, abrasive and insidious Drone Noise with Black Metal, Ambient, minimalistic soundscapes and improvisational music, brought to you by a collaboration between Davide Destro (LaColpa, Macabro Dio) and Void (Feed Them Death).

With “Se Solo Potessimo Cadere” (translated “If only we may fall”) PSEUDODOXIA deliver a refreshingly honest and unique approach to music and experimentation, combining the use and manipulation of analogue noise oscillators, synthesizers and acoustic drone with piano, guttural screams and hyper-distorted, dissonant guitars.

The fantastic artwork cover – a graphic adaptation of a grandiose original masterpiece by renowned painter Danilo Capua (“Il Diavolo: Arcano Maggiore”, oil on canvas, 2000), further expands upon the main theme of the album: the fall, as in the conscious abandonment to the ecstasy of finding oneself by losing oneself, and to the nobility of failure.

PSEUDODOXIA’s debut full length album is a bone-shattering nightmare, addictively dark and fiercely experimental. A truly disquieting and frightening listening experience.

FFO: Swans, Coil, Throbbing Gristle, middle Ulver on acid.
