Info:
The singer and keyboardist SELVANS plays heavy metal with black metal and prog-rock influences. Lyrics and concept are inspired by Italian folk-horror tales and imagery.
After two full-length albums, "Lupercalia" and "Faunalia", he released the "Dark Italian Art" EP via Avantgarde Music in 2021, an artistic manifesto for which he teamed up with the horror writer Luigi Musolino. SELVANS has toured extensively around the Europe - including performances at such festivals as Metaldays (Slovenia), De Mortem Et Diabolum (Germany), Metalowa Wigilia (Poland), Frantic Fest (Italy), Rites of the Black Mass (Romania), Dark Medieval Fest (France), Autumn Souls of Sofia (Bulgaria) and Emanations of the Absolute (Switzerland).
The new album "Saturnalia", entirely sung in Italian, sees for the first time an orchestra and a choir consisting of 60 elements playing side by side with SELVANS and his band. It was produced by Selvans and mixed and mastered by Marco S. Vermiglio at The Forge Music Productions (Stockholm). The cover artwork was created by Sheila Franco.
"Saturnalia" will be the final album of this project.
