In 2026, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of SADIST‘s landmark album ‘Tribe‘, recognized as one of the milestones of Progressive Death Metal, Sadist will play a series of shows in which the entire album, for the very first time, will be performed live.
A Vinyl and CD reissue of the same album, which was originally released only on CD, is also planned for the early part of the year.
Meanwhile the band recorded at Nadir Music Studios (Genoa, Italy) their own version of Keith Emerson’s “Mater Tenebrarum” originally composed as the soundtrack to Dario Argento’s movie “Inferno”.
The young and talented soprano Carola Marasco contributed to the production of this new version.
The song is being distributed on the main streaming platforms, and also as a video version on YouTube.
Italian progressive death metal legends SADIST are streaming their new studio album “Something To Pierce”, released today March 7th on Agonia Records.
Following the well-acclaimed “Firescorched”, released in 2022, the new album “Something to Pierce” promises to be even more aggressive, both musically and lyrically. The band’s tenth installment is a bold amalgamation of technique, aggression and experimentation; in short, “a further step towards the definition of a unique music style, which you can’t help but love…or hate,” comments founding member & mastermind, Tommy Talamanca. “Like it or not, nobody sounds like Sadist!”
“Something to Pierce” was record, mixed and mastered by Tommy Talamanca at Nadir Music Studios in Genoa, Italy. The cover artwork was created by Andreas Christanetoff of Armaada Art (Aborted).
SADIST started out in the early nineties, having emerged from Genoa in Italy. The band went ahead of its time, with an adventurous take on the then-developing progressive death metal subgenre. Its presence was firmly established through an unmistakable style, detectable since the debut installment “Above The Light” (1993). After a five year hiatus (2000-2005), SADIST returned to its proven sonic formula of jazz-infected epic prog-death, fraught with Middle-Eastern influences.
Along its path, SADIST kicked off concerts for Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Slayer and Motorhead, and gained exposure at high-profile fests (Wacken Open Air, Gods Of Metal, Hellfest). In 2023 alone, the band shared the stage with Samael, Pantera, Dark Tranquility and Sepultura, andcontinued to play festivals and one-off dates throughtout 2024, amidst putting final touches on new album, “Something to Pierce”. Among the group’s last live appeacnces are Prog Power Europe and Corpsorate Death Fest.
