Mater A Clivis Imperat was created in 2008 by Samael Von Martin (Evol, Death Dies) on guitars and Natalija Branko on keyboards. With the help of Tomas on drums (Evol, Mad Agony) the guys decide to create a sort of soundtrack to the dark poems of Marta Telatin, poetess and fortune teller, but the project fades prematurely. A few years later Samael meets Isabella, with whom he shared the stage with Deusdiva, a prominent Paduan band in the punk/hard rock circuit and begins a collaboration in the occult project Negatron - Tenebre. When Samael resumes the musical project with Natalija through Racconti Del Filò, stories of mystery and esotericism of the Euganean Hills, the nights spent in abandoned monasteries and villas steeped in magic, and the nocturnal forays, listening to Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath, Goblin, Jacula, Devil Doll, Morricone and Fabio Frizzi, Samael himself ends music composition with the help of Alessio Saglia, a talented Milanese keyboardist and Elisa Di Marte, a well-known Paduan soprano. The texts are translated and adapted into Latin to give the work a more archaic value. Listening to Isabella's voice in the rehearsals in the woods was an unforgettable experience, so much so that the band wanted her as the main voice of the project. And so Mater A Clivis Imperat, led by Samael Von Martin and Isabella, records all vocals and Gregorian choirs in the summer of 2020 to complete Samael's music, which now takes on an even more obscure and esoteric form, like a macabre orchestra. A special mention goes to the late maestro Enzo Sciotti who created the cover image. The dark Mother who dominates the hills is now a real cult.
