  • VALERIO DI LELLA is NOVEMBRE’s new bass player, European Tour, and more news;

     

    The tormented role of bass player is passed on to VALERIO DI LELLA, already the band's live sound engineer for years, and singer of Death Metal band GRIMNESS.

    NOVEMBRE, who recently parted company with Luca Giovagnoli, are glad to officially welcome Valerio on board.

     

     

    In Valerio's own words:

    "I'm so thrilled to join this band, as being always on the road with them as a soundguy had made me one of them anyways. Moreover, we totally share the same musical tastes and I'm so digging the new songs which are taking shape these days".

     

    Indeed, the band's just started the writing sessions for their next studio album..

    It's way too early to say anything about it except for the unmistakable Novembre's style which is always there and ain't gonna be altered..


     

    Meanwhile, CLASSICA re-release is gonna be supported by an extensive European tour with TIAMAT and THE 69 EYES in February and March 2009;

  • NOVEMBRE – ‘CLASSICA’ Oct 27th !!!

    CLASSICA, Novembre's third, and probably most important album is gonna be re-released this 27th of October...

     

    Originally released in late 1999, it's the first Novembre album released for an international label (Germany's Century Media), which soared the band's status to the Italian Masters of Sorrow, now known everywhere in the world.

     

    Entirely recorded at the band's Outersound Studios in Rome, it's been mixed at famous producer and KING DIAMOND guitar axe, ANDY LAROQUE's LOS ANGERED studios, in Gothenburg, Sweden.

    The magnificence given by the mix-desk wizard's hand and the blue-steel power of the ten tracks CLASSICA was made of, resulted in a strong promotional effort, which later got the band into an extensive European tour with Metal giants MOONSPELL and KREATOR.

    The split between the band and the label a few years later is known history and after all this time fans hunger for this outstanding album has grown only equally to its unavailability in the stores.

    That's why NOVEMBRE's new home, UK's Peaceville Records, decided to buy its rights and to re-release it.

    August 2008; the band locked themselves up in Outersound Studios once again, to fill in CLASSICA's too short mix holes. Not a remix indeed, but a post-production refinement work.

     

    And last but not least, the mastering CLASSICA deserved has at last been done at

    Europe's best recording studios, Helsinki's FINNVOX.

     

    Well, just as in every respectable re-release, there's bonus stuff;

    We unearthed a previously unreleased track named

    "COLOUR OF AN EYE", which we could finally mix properly.

    One of those songs we'll forever ask ourselves why it was cut off the album!!!

    And as if it was not enough, we added demo-versions of the tracks "TALES FROM A WINTER TO COME" and "WINTER 1941"

     

     

    Enjoy..

  • A word or two, about the recent elections in Italy.

    The following statement reflects the singer's view only!

    "I deeply wish to thank my country mates; the majority of my country mates;

    Those to the North, the Center, the South, who now feel their lives are safer, their employment granted and their pensions, all of a sudden, risen.


    I deeply wish to thank these people, who were told Italy is an unsafe place where there's a rape, a robbery, a murder every minute;

    While it actually became a prison-state, with X-ray cameras planted at every corner of the streets;

    where as soon as you THINK of committing a crime, you're filmed and aired on TG5, with a DNA trace nailing you beyond every reasonable doubt;

    Where the only ones left to go crazy and get themselves in trouble, are just some ROMs, some non-EU citizen and some lonely, middle-aged, wealthy couple (if you know what I mean).


     

    I deeply wish to thank these riffraff, who were told they would finally have democracy back, while from 2001 to 2006 the best democracy we've had was the "Mexican slaughter" at the Genoa 2001's G8, the "ad-personam" laws and the firing of the freest and most prestigious journalists that a western democracy has ever had (Montanelli and Biagi).


     

    I deeply wish to thank these people of shit, penniless people, dying of precarity, to whom it has been promised a stable job, right from those who invented and brought precarity on act.


     

    I deeply wish to thank these ladies and gentleman, who have been told this and that, and as sheep, they had believed everything the six, one-man-governed, national TV channels said;

    even thought truth was there, before their very eyes.

    There, outside their very windows..


     

    I wanna thank these dudes who desperately need a strong leader, without whom, they wouldn't know what to do next.

    These sleepwalking automata, nephew of the rubble who hailed the Duce, sons and daughters of those pieces of shit who voted for Craxi and Andreotti for 40 years (even though this one has been declared "mafioso" by law).


     

    I deeply wish to thank these "coglioni", if today I feel like getting back to the early 90's, all-Italian Death Metal motto "LET'S BURN OUR PASSPORTS".

     

     

    Finally, thank you, for these days I'm not really in the mood for playing my guitar."

     


    Carm.

     

     

     

    PS:

    If you feel these words offend you somehow, don't bother writing.

    Erase us from your friend-list and peace be with you. We don't need each others!
