Ponte del Diavolo – why?
Ferocious Black Metal or epic, almost operatic occult Doom? A towering Post-Metal wall, cold Darkwave or snotty Post-Punk? It’s hard to say where one ends and the other begins in the seamless Post-Everything-Rock of this Italian quintet. Led by the versatile voice of Erba Del Diavolo the band’s 2024 debut Fire Blades From The Tomb easily evokes comparisons to the likes of Messa, early Gggolddd, Dool, E-L-R or Healthyliving - and here and there even that certain band with a name quite similar to the English translation of theirs: “The Devil’s Bridge”. If they can carry only half of their studio recordings’ spirit onto the stage, anyone drawn to this direction will certainly experience a state Blackened bliss at their show.
Ponte del Diavolo will perform on Sunday, April 20!
