October 7, 2011, 13 years ago
Century Media Records has uploaded an audio sample of 'Trip The Darkness', the new single from international goth metal stars LACUNA COIL. Check it out below:
Lacuna Coil's sixth studio album, Dark Adrenaline, is scheduled for release in North America on January 24th, 2012 (January 23rd in Europe).
Produced by the acclaimed Don Gilmore, Dark Adrenaline promises to deliver the melodic, sensual, metallic rush for which the band has come to be known. Please see below for the album's tracklisting.
The first single from the new album, 'Trip The Darkness', will impact at Active Rock radio on October 10th, and will be released digitally on October 17th.
Lacuna Coil will tour in North America in support of Dark Adrenaline around the album's release; look for a big tour announcement in the coming weeks.
Of the new album, Lacuna Coil's sultry co-vocalist Cristina Scabbia commented, "As some of you know, the release for Dark Adrenaline was postponed a bit... and this made me even more nervous because I had to wait even more to spit it out! I am so thrilled I can finally say something about this album - ha! I simply love it. I feel this is the best work we have ever done, and it absolutely captures the essence of who we are. The atmosphere of the record will make a lot of old-school fans very happy, and the newer fans will enjoy the vibrant energy and the dark blood running through the songs. I really believe the Dark Adrenaline will wake you up. Ladies and gentlemen, get ready to enjoy the trip!"
For more than a decade, Italy's Lacuna Coil has been a fixture in the international metal scene, gracing the covers of countless hard rock and metal publications worldwide. With five full-length albums, two EPs, various singles and a DVD to their credit, the band has sold upwards of 800,000 units in the United States alone and is well-established on Active Rock radio. Melding seductive vocals with a modern, electronica-inspired metal sound, Lacuna Coil has wowed audiences as headliners the world over, and as featured guests on Ozzfest, as well as on all of the major European festivals such as Download and Graspop. Lacuna Coil, whose moniker translates to "empty spiral" in English, is: Cristina Scabbia (female vocals), Andrea Ferro (male vocals), Cristiano Migliore (guitar), Marco Biazzi (guitar), Marco Coti Zelati (bass) and Cristiano Mozzati (drums/percussion).

As it has been too long since Lacuna Coil has played their native Italy, the band want to give a very special treat to their Italian fans: an extensive tour throughout throughout the country.
