Black, The (italy)

Requiem

After 3 decades of his unique brand The Black, one of the most important Italian heavy doom bands, Mario Di Donato published the album 'Requiem.' The Black was founded by Mario Di Donato back in 1988 and he is a multitalented artist who not only writes all the music and lyrics but he also paints all the band's album covers. The Black was been branded doom metal in their early years but their music is much broader than that. It's mystic and artistic and performed in Latin, as Mario always has had a fascination about blending rock and art together. The creativity of an artist like Di Donato seems unstoppable and his 2018 album, 'Requiem,' is his 10th album under the name The Black. 'Requiem' is true to Mario's vision and has some vibrating groove where Mario's guitar playing is even more personal than before. It's irregular but also exciting and blend this with his Latin voice that expresses both hope and fear when he sings about the crepuscular visions he sees and about touching the sun, death and the afterlife. This sounds like heavy stuff but the music might no go into the doom territory anymore still it has some epic melodies that still can amaze and shock the listeners.
