ITALIAN DOOM METAL RECORDS


ITA: Vi presento il nuovo progetto “Italian Doom Metal Records” , una label che trattera' esclusivamente doom metal bands italiane selezionando eccellenze e talenti musicali, prestando particolare attenzione verso le bands che orientano il proprio sound su sonorita' tipicamente nostrane.
Come potete osservare, il logo dell'etichetta ritrae un gatto ed una croce, la scelta di tale simbolo vuole essere un piccolo riferimento e tributo al padre ed iniziatore della scena italiana e cioè a Paolo Catena ( Paul Chain) il quale , nella storica compilation “The Story Of...” (Death SS) , seppur rappresentandoli differentemente , annoverava tra i suoi simboli proprio gli stessi.
Nel caso specifico del logo della label ho pero preferito utilizzare una croce pagana , ( la croce “Ankh” egiziana) rappresentata presso da molte civiltà antiche.
Essa rappresenta la luce e la vita mentre il felino rappresenta il mistero, la notte e l'occulto.

Indicativamente i generi di interesse saranno i seguenti: Italian Dark Sound ; Doom Metal ; Epic Doom Metal ; Psych/Doom Metal; Stoner/Doom Metal ; Experimental Music ; Progressive Doom Metal

Le prime due release sono gia confermate , l'etichetta debutterà con il primo full-length dei toscani Fangs Of The Molossus ( Psich/Doom ) ristampato in una prestigiosa edizione in vinile ( Colored Vinyl e Black Vinyl)

La seconda release verra annunciata nei prossimi mesi e costutirà uno split tra due storiche bands italiane .

In Doom.

ENGL: This is the new project "Italian Doom Metal Records," a label that will deal exclusively Italian doom metal bands by selecting excellence and musical talents, paying particular attention to the bands that vote their sound to a typical italian style.
As you can see, the logo of the label depicts a cat and a cross, the choice of this symbol meant to be a kind of reference and tribute to Paolo Catena (Paul Chain) , the father and founder of the Italian Doom Metal scene. In the historical compilation "The Story of ..." (Death SS), although representing them differently, he used among its symbols just the same.
In the specific case of the logo of the label I preferred to use a pagan cross (the Egyptian cross "Ankh")commonly used by many ancient civilizations.
That cross represents light and life , while the cat is the mystery, the night and the occult.

The first two releases are already confirmed, the label will debut with the first full-length of the tuscan Fangs Of The Molossus ( Psich/Doom ) reissued in a prestigious vinyl edition ( colored and black vinyl)


The second release will be announced in the next months and it consist of a split between two historical Italian bands.
