CADAVERIA
was formed
in 2001 by
Cadaveria
and Flegias
(aka Marçelo
Santos) with
the intent
to create a
virtual
space where
to freely
express
themselves
as musicians
and extreme
artists. In
few months,
after
recruiting
some of the
best
musicians of
the Italian
metal scene
(John - aka
Killer Bob -
from
Necrodeath,
Frank Booth
and Baron
Harkonnen),
the band
recorded the
debut album
"The
Shadows'
Madame"
(Scarlet
Records),
that
received
good
consents
world wide.
Since then
their
private
virtual
space became
a collective
metal
universe.
CADAVERIA
style is
immediately
labelled as
Horror
Metal,
definition
that means
all and
nothing and
that
therefore
leaves the
band the
chance to
play from
the
classical
heavy metal
to the new
progressive
tendencies.
The texts,
scheming,
hermetic and
introspective,
mirror the
dark and
opposite
soul of the
singer
Cadaveria,
talking
about
existence,
memory,
energies,
intellect
and death.
Once finished the live support activity of the first CD, CADAVERIA released a Home Video, including the video clip of the cult song "Spell", the live clip of "Circle of Eternal Becoming", the make off of the videos and some unpublished backstage images. The video is fully self imagined, self made, self produced and self distributed. Its professional result testifies the creativity of the band and their love for the visual dimension. In 2003 the band began the composition of the second CD, while Baron Harkonnen left the band to devote himself to his "electro-metal" project DyNAbyte. CADAVERIA continue its musical walk planning songs that have their originality in the variety of the voice and building more melodic guitar riffs, but still preserving the original aggressiveness.
While positively licensing the agreement for "The Shadows' Madame" release in UK (Salvation/Triple Silence), in 2004 the second album "Far Away From Conformity" have been released (Scarlet Records). The reactions of the audience are very hot and sometimes conflicting: CADAVERIA have reached an appropriate autonomous complex style, that, as the title of the album says, is well away from the stereotypes of death/black metal and from any trends of pre-existing genres. The CD artwork, as always manufactured with photographic works by contemporary artists, shows also a renewed band look, hard but detailed, absolutely out of time. With Far Away From Conformity CADAVERIA are hated or loved! The album, licensed also in Russia (Cd Maximum) and South America (Hellion), collects good reviews from magazines and webzines all over the world. The CD promotion continues till Summer 2005, ending with a great live show @ Marquee, in central London.
During 2006 CADAVERIA work on the composition and production of its 3rd full length and in December the CD is ready for the mastering. In early 2007 CADAVERIA join SEASON OF MIST that in May 07 release the new album entitled "In Your Blood": twelve brand new songs that mark another step ahead in the band's artistic career.
