Dark Lunacy - Play Dead | Call-Out

From: Italy

 

Discography: “Deviod” (2000), Forget Me Not (2003), “The Diarist” (2006)

 

Dark Lunacy is a melodic death metal band that often uses a string quartet and choir to round out their sound. The band was formed in 1997 and released their first EP, “Silent Storm”, in 1998. The bands themes draw heavily on darkness, sadness and war. Their most recent album “ The Diarist” was a concept album about living in Italy during World War II. Dark Lunacy’s members are:

 

Mike Lunacy- Vocals

Mary Ann- Guitar

Imer- Bass

Baijkal- Drums

Simon- Guitar.

 

Dark Lunacy is utterly unforgettable melo-death with classic sensibility. Their ability to make a record haunting and dark yet uplifting with the arrangements of strings and choir is brilliant. Sadly there hasn’t been anything new from the band since 2006, but they appear to still be together. Though their style has yet to be duplicated if you like Eternal Tears of Sorrow, or Noumena you will like DL.
