Hot Black Anima

Lacuna Coil’s ninth full-length is epic, atmospheric, groovy, heavy yet forward-thinking. Vocalist Cristina Scabbia is transcendent throughout. Her vocal partner Andrea Ferro has viciously transformed into a beast, while the rest of Lacuna Coil – including new drummer Richard Meiz – give the performance of their lifetimes. Just as ‘Comalies’ (2002), ‘Shallow Life’ (2009), and ‘Delirium’ (2016) were pivotal moments for the Italians and their global network of fans, ‘Black Anima’ takes Lacuna Coil’s greatness to the next level.
