Lacuna Coil - New Album

I'm always happy to receive news about Lacuna Coil and today it was to announce that their new album Broken Crown Halo will be released on March 31st, April 1st if you're in the USA or Canada.

"What conflict could run so deep that it takes you to the deepest corners of your inner world? Today we are surrounded by a lot of lies, aliases, and people acting like they are wearing an invisible crown - but you better have thick skin if you want to wear this crown! ‘Broken Crown Halo' is a cinematic album that could be the soundtrack of our days - it is a dark vision of a near future when survival is second nature, and failure is not something to be avoided, but rather cultivated with lessons learned along the way.
 
We set the bar pretty high with 'Dark Adrenaline' and it hasn't been easy bringing our sound to the next level, but we have lived, learned and grown through a year full of personal issues and changes. We learned to be strong and get stronger, and we felt an inner vibe in this band that we haven't felt before. We locked ourselves in an age-old studio in Milan, Italy, where history was strong and the past met with our future, vintage gear and the influence of classic Italian horror movies and bands like Goblin meeting the fresh and rough sounds of the modern world with unique and invigorating results. ‘Broken Crown Halo' is LACUNA COIL introducing a new order, and letting nothing stand in our way..."

This is the band's seventh album and is the follow up to Dark Adrenaline which was released back in 2012, the same year they had an incredible run of tour dates with numerous bands including Volbeat, Megadeth, Motorhead and Paradise Lost.

L-R: Cristiano "Criz" Mozzati, Marco "Maki" Coti-Zelati, Andrea Ferro, Cristina Scabbia,
Marco "Maus" Biazzi and Cristiano "Pizza" Migliore.

As far as dates this year go, they have been confirmed for Bloodstock here in the UK and will be on the road in North America as part of Revolver's Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock Tour. Not sure what the non female members think of this! Although they will be sharing the stage with Sick Puppies, so it's sure to be a kick ass show!
