The band section of this forum is incredibly slow--almost dying. So I feel obligated to get some discussion going by creating a few threads introducing obscure bands or lesser known bands.
I recently got in the mood to listen to hours upon hours of Opeth. That little phase was successful yet redundant. I subscribe to various metal uploaders on Youtube, so I was fortunate enough to find a Novembre song on my Youtube homepage.
Novembre is an Italian band that started their early career as death metal.<i>Novembre grew to develop a unique, atmospheric sound. Although most of their lyrics are in English, vocalist Carmelo Orlando sings in Italian occasionally in many of their songs. They released their first two albums, Wish I Could Dream It Again and Arte Novecento, through Italian label Polyphemus. In the mid-90's, they signed with Century Media to release their next three albums, Classica, Novembrine Waltz, and Dreams d'Azur. More recently, Novembre signed to Peaceville Records, to release their sixth album Materia, which took on a progressive rock influence, and their seventh album, The Blue, which saw a return to addition of death metal-esque passages.</i>
Below is a few hyperlinks to Youtube videos of their songs.(mostly being audio only)
Novembre - Bluecracy
Novembre - Iridescence
Fans of Opeth and Insomnium will love Novembre.
