Black Anima will be Lacuna Coil's first album in three years.
Italian goth metal quintet Lacuna Coil are finally back to follow up 2016’s iconic Delirium with Black Anima out October 11 via Century Media. What does the term "black anima" mean, you ask? Lead vocalist Cristina Scabbia has an intriguing explanation:
“Black Anima is all of us.
It’s you and it’s me, it’s everything we hide and fiercely expose to a world that’s halfway asleep.
It is the fogged mirror we are peering into searching for the truth.
It’s sacrifice and pain, it’s justice and fear, it’s fury and revenge, it’s past and future….
Human beings in the magnificence of a disturbing ambiguity.
The black core that balances it all… as without darkness light would never exist.
We proudly present to you our new work and can’t wait to welcome you in our embrace.
We are the Anima.”
