PONTE DEL DIAVOLO Announce Second Leg of European Fire Blades of the Tomb Tour

With shadows as their scepter and darkness their domain, PONTE DEL DIAVOLO emerges once more from the stygian depths to cast their spell across Europe. Entwined in the mysteries of their craft, this esoteric ensemble is set to ignite the stage with “FIRE BLADES FROM THE TOMB Part II,” their hauntingly anticipated tour beginning this fall.

Born in Turin’s cold, bleak winter of 2020, PONTE DEL DIAVOLO has always existed on the periphery of the known and the arcane. Formed from the essences of Erba Del Diavolo, Kratom, Nerium, Segale Cornuta and Krhura Abro, the quintet has built a towering edifice of sound, nurturing their alchemy of doom/black metal stirred with modern, outside-the-box influences. Their debut album, Fire Blades from the Tomb, is a testament to this synthesis – a treacherous journey through darkwave, post-punk, and a tempestuous sea of two basses.

Prepare to cross into the Italian dark arts once more as Ponte Del Diavolo embarks on this tour with the following dates etched in the annals of modern metal lore:

PONTE DEL DIAVOLO bridges the gap between two separate worlds.

The Italian band proposes a Doom / Black metal sound with old-scho ol roots, adding a modern and outside the box background. The female voice – with strong dark wave influences – is the lyric cor pus of this strongly esoteric project. The solid presence of two bassists creates the massive foundation for the rhythmic guitar, everything marked by a raw and dynamic drumming.

Mystery of Mystery / Secret Live Session marked the quintet’s debut EP. It was recorded live and without editing at Dracma Studio with the producer L’Os sario in their home base of Turin in March 2020. “I” was released on the web by Iopan Records. It was soon followed by their second single, “The Wickedest Wo man In the World”.

At the end of 2021, Ponte Del Diavolo recorded their second EP, Sancta Menstruis at Deepest Sea Studio in Turin with Danilo Battocchio. The first single,  “The Unborn”, arrived in February 2022.

The band’s third EP, Ave Scintilla!, was also recorded in Turin. This time around, they reconvened at Dracma Studio with L’Ossario.

Now that they’ve signed with Season of Mist, Ponte Del Diavolo are ready to release their debut album. Fire Blades From the Tomb  forges classic, cultish doom metal with modern bents of post-punk. Lead single and opening track “Demone” is whipped along by a boiled black bass line and dark-wave induced vocals.
