Formed: 1996

Milan,
Italy
Last Known Status: Active
Background
Originally formed in 1996, the band teamed up with producer Waldemar Sorychta (Sentenced, Samael, Tiamat) in 1998. Terrorizer Magazine hailed Lacuna Coil's self-titled debut as "superb, and its strength soon weakens whatever resistance you may have had after repeated plays." In 1999, The album In A Reverie was released with the same producer. They played at the Dynamo Open Air Festival in The Netherlands, the Metal Mania Festival in Poland, and Italy's prestigious Gods Of Metal Festival, and the Altheimer Open Air Festival. They released the Halflife EP, which was recorded in Italy with a new producer, to their European community of fans in the year 2000.
In 2001, they released Unleashed Memories with their original producer, this album (released in North America with the previously unavailable Halflife EP). Praised by Alternative Press for their "supersize chords that nearly burst into flame, gorgeous three-part harmonies and chill-inducing melodies that recycle in your head for days" and earning a special mention in Billboard Magazine's Hard Music Spotlight for their "compelling mixture of seductive melodies and aggressive riffs," the band embarked on their first North American tour with Moonspell in the winter of 2001. Metal Maniacs documented their live show to be "a sensory overload of the highest order. In one word: intoxicating."
Lacuna Coil creates a dream-like quality of the world, which floods you with a myriad of heavy and hypnotic sounds. The epic feel of their latest melodic invention, Comalies, will quickly lead to you believe that an incredibly personal epiphany is about to happen. Each song contributes to the build-up, encouraging introspection while documenting the sadness that this particular journey uncovers. Upholding the emotive yin/yang tradition of vocal interplay between the dulcet tones of Cristina Scabbia and the deliberate vocals of her male singing partner Andrea Ferro, Comalies is another dynamic exploration of Lacuna Coil's soulfully somber and stunningly enigmatic musical alchemy.

Lacuna Coil Working On A New Album
LACUNA COIL's Andrea Ferrero has issued the following update:
"I’ve been very busy with the works on the new Lacuna Coil album that has started taking shape. We feel like we’re on the right creative mood but we still wanna write a lot more material before we call it done."

Ozzfest Coming To London?
Kerrang.com reports that Ozzfest 2008 is strongly rumored to be coming to the UK with a one-off show at London's 02 Arena on July 19.
OZZY OSBOURNE, who begins a series a South American tour on March 30 with KORN and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, looks set to headline the one-day extravaganza.
Although promoters and agents involved with the show are remaining tight-lipped, Kerrang.com believes that other bands in the running are KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, ALICE IN CHAINS, SERJ TANKIAN, DIMMU BORGIR and LACUNA COIL.
As previously reported, the U.S. version of Ozzfest is rumored to be morphing into a two-day "destination festival" in Dallas. There has been no official word yet on what format Ozzfest will take or who will be on the bill.
The rumors come in the wake of this year's arrival of the metal-oriented Rockstar Energy Mayhem Tour, which will play 30 North American amphitheaters during July and August, the time when Ozzfest is traditionally making its rounds.
Last year's Ozzfest offered free admission, with fans acquiring tickets mostly through sponsoring web sites. But the acts were not paid either, which resulted in a decidedly less than impressive main stage lineup. The Mayhem trek has already robbed Ozzfest of two potential main-stage heavyweights in DISTURBED and SLIPKNOT, with fan favorites DRAGONFORCE and MASTODON also taking part in the Mayhem tour.
OZZY OSBOURNE is likely to headline the U.S. Ozzfest as a solo act again, since his BLACK SABBATH bandmates are busy with their HEAVEN AND HELL offshoot.
The Mayhem tour is being co-produced by Kevin Lyman, who has the successful Warped and Taste of Chaos packages on his resume.
Lacuna Coil Singer Appears On Italian Television
According to Emptyspiral.net, on Thursday, February 28th, LACUNA COIL singer Cristina Scabbia took part in the Festival Di Sanremo on live TV. Sanremo is dubbed 'the Festival of Italian music' and features commercial and pop musicians presenting unreleased songs, competing in the last week of February for the number one spot, and it's the most followed music show in Italy. Cristina was a guest of singer L'Aura, representing with her the benefit project REZOPHONIC, a super-group whose goal is to raise funds to open water-wells in Africa. A video of the performance, with a few side-notes in Italian, can be seen below: More...
Lacuna Coil Discuss Paradise Lost Documentary
LACUNA COIL singer Andrea Ferro has issued the following update:
"Century Media just released 'Over the Madness', a documentary about PARADISE LOST's 20th anniversary. This band has been really influential in the beginning of our career and we've been really glad to contribute to this movie. You will find me, Cristina [Scabbia, vocals] and Chris [guitarist Cristiano Migliore] talkin' about P.L. alongside with a lot of other people from metal bands and the bandmembers themselves. 'Over the Madness' is not only a due tribute to a piece of history of metal music, it is also a smart guide for young bands. Don't miss it!"
"Over The Madness – A Diran Noubar Film" — which offers the first-ever, extremely comprehensive and very personal documentary on PARADISE LOST and the gothic metal genre — was released via Century Media Records on November 26, 2007 as a double DVD set. The film's world premiere was held at the Cannes Film Festival's Market in May 2007 followed by a German premiere at the Wave Gotik Festival in Leipzig the same month.
The documentary features first-hand accounts from all current and former band members and many other dramatically influential acts. Furthermore, Noubar accompanied the band from their native Halifax (UK) to tour stops in Mexico and Greece where PARADISE LOST are regarded rock "gods." More...
Lacuna Coil Singer Talks Australia
LACUNA COIL singer Cristina Scabbia has issued the following update:
"I'm back home now… and take some time to tell you something about my experience in Australia.
"Some of you guys have been there before already and some of you are FROM there… But let me tell you something: if you've never been there, just GO OVER THERE RIGHT NOW.
"It's been one of the most beautiful experiences of my life, and I'm serious.
"I don't know where to start 'cause I think the experience of petting a koala and kinda kissing a walabi at the koala sanctuary in Brisbane is been priceless, so liberating. In these moments I felt I had nothing else I could care about, just me and the nature…
"I loved Sydney , tha Taronga zoo, the trip on the boat, the big bridge close the opera house and the huge amount of BIG bats, the Perth shopping area, Melbourne and Adelaide and their cool places.
"But I don't forget YOU guys!!! THANKS to the different crowds who gave us one of the best welcome EVER.
"We were opening the tour 'cause it was our very first time over there, but there was always a lot of people waiting for us, wearing t-shirts and singing all the songs.
"Everyone went literally NUTS watching the duet with me and Dave [Mustaine] for 'A Tout Le Monde' during [MEGADETH's] set (believe me, it's funny to hear 'OH MY GOOOOOOD!!!' when you enter the stage, from the crowd, I LOVED it! Ahaha!).
"Awesome to meet some of you guys, you've been waiting for us for so long, we would have loved to be there earlier! Can't wait to come back again.
"MEGADETH, STATIC-X, DEVILDRIVER and BRING ME THE HORIZON have been a super-cool team to travel, perform, and PARTY with, had a lot of fun and…
"Most of all, thank YOU, MEGADETH, for having us…such a beautiful experience."
Lacuna Coil Singer Talks Band History And More
Cameron Edney of Australia's Inside_Out666 recently conducted an interview with LACUNA COIL singer Andrea Ferro. A few excerpts from the chat follow:
Inside_Out666: There's been a lot of talk that you are open to doing an all-acoustic EP and or full album. Is it possible that once you finally get back home that you will start penning ideas for that?
Andrea Ferro: Yeah, yeah, the idea is basically to keep the songwriting going between the Japanese shows and the Australian tour and then come home and keep going into next year. Then we will be meeting up with our management and label to see what is expected, when the possibility of a release will be etc. At the moment we are a bit slow on the song writing, we are collecting ideas mostly. This month we have been mostly arranging our private lives, we have been away for so long touring, we have been busy moving houses, or somebody is getting married. There are a lot of personal things going on! We have been collecting ideas for the next album though.
Inside_Out666: [Laughs] Have you got any working titles that you can share with us.
Andrea Ferro: No basically it's a lot of musical ideas but very rough. We are trying to change the way we have been writing. In the past we have always written the music using a computer program. We were sharing it with everybody and everyone would add vocals or lyrics, but this time we want some songs to be created more naturally. This way we can have some more spontaneous songs created from the jamming room. We would like the next album to be a bit different and fresh. When you listen to it you will go "oh, is this LACUNA COIL?" But not in a bad way [laughs]. I think its time for us to grow with a more mature album!
Inside_Out666: I do want to congratulate you on the massive success you have received since the release of "Karmacode", it's a fantastic album. Looking back on the recording process now, is there anything you would have changed?
Andrea Ferro: Ah, we would have worked more on the production side. We would have spent a little more time on the recording and the sound. Not so much on the songs themselves, but in general on the production. Some songs could have been a little more direct probably. I think an album is a picture of the moment, and for that moment it was perfect. "Karmacode" was a very weird album, we were coming off a big success with "Comalies" and we didn't know which direction to take. It was very hard for us to be 100% satisfied with everything 'cause we were under pressure to decide what we wanted to do. We were very happy with "Karmacode", it brought us to different levels in terms of popularity, but I think we still have time to improve as a band and make an even better album.
Inside_Out666: Andrea, it has been a little over ten years since you released the first LACUNA COIL demos. Looking back at it now, did you ever imagine that by the end of 2007 just over a decade later you would be touring Australia and playing to loyal and devoted fans all across the world?
Andrea Ferro: No, no never in a million years. When we started we just did the demo for ourselves and tried to send it out for a laugh to the labels and the magazines [laughs].
Inside_Out666: [Laughs]
Andrea Ferro: We never expected to become professional musicians or this to become our job. We were just a bunch of friends that were hanging out in the same metal pubs. There was no history of other bands from Italy doing the same thing, making a career out of playing metal. We were really the first example of this kind. It really was a unique experience and we never ever thought we would push it to this level, never in a million years!
Inside_Out666: Andrea, over the years you have shared the stage with so many great bands such as IN FLAMES, BLACK SABBATH, JUDAS PRIEST and MEGADETH, to name just a few. Who have you enjoyed touring with the most and can you share a funny story from the road with us?
Andrea Ferro: Luckily we always have very good experiences and keep good relationships with all the bands, well most of the bands that we have toured with. I think that the tour we did with ROB ZOMBIE was one of the best in the United States. He's a legend, and he was treating us so nicely. At the end of the tour everyone didn't want to leave. We cooked some Italian pasta for him and the crew at the last gig, and we got dressed up like zombies and walked on stage during one of the songs.
Inside_Out666: [laughs]
Andrea Ferro: Rob was very friendly; he grabbed us during the song and threw us on the floor. We filmed everything, it was great! Ozzfest is very cool too. It's like a summer camp for metal bands. There is a lot of hanging out, a lot of drinking and smoking together. It's a big party travelling around America. Ozzfest is always a very funny experience.
Inside_Out666: Andrea, what is the craziest rumour you have ever heard about yourself and or the band?
Andrea Ferro: Oh, there were some weird stories going around. I don't know who bought them out but people were saying that we were all showering together naked with Cristina after the show [laughs]. Sometimes people say that me and Cristina are married and that's not true.

Lacuna Coil Singer Speaks On Latest Album And More
Michael O'Brien of Australia's The Metal Forge recently conducted an interview with LACUNA COIL singer Andrea Ferro. A few excerpts from the chat follow:
On whether they feel proud of the fact that they are Italy's greatest heavy rock export:
'Yeah, we do (feel proud) but sometimes it's the other bands that they don't feel the same. They get jealous or make stupid comments. Some of them, not all of them of course, some bands feel like we don't deserve this but they don't recognize that even if you don't like our music the most important thing is we are opening some doors for heavy music in general from Italy and that's the most important thing. It's not the fact that you like or don't like our music. You have to recognize what we are doing for everyone, just because we are doing it, not because of what we are."
On the perception from some longtime fans that the band has abandoned its roots:
"Every time you try to step a bit in a different direction you always have the old-school fans that don't approve and you have new people coming to you. I think its normal for every band. We are the kind of band which try to change a little bit on every album, improve and move in to a different direction, so it's normal for us to receive these kinds of comments. It's just a natural thing, it's a spontaneous thing. For every band there is an evolution. If you play the same style album after album it can be more rewarding in a way for the old-school fans but it's just not the way we are. We've never been like that. It's a natural course for us to change album after album. . . It's not honest if we just keep doing the same album because we know a certain amount of people are going to buy it. It's just not honest for us because we're not the same people we were in 2001 when we wrote the previous album. It's normal that in 3-4 years you change, you experience different things. It's not like we are going to do a techno or hip-hop album, it's still going to be a rock/metal album but of course there's going some little different directions we are going to take because it's just the way we experience our life and we can't just live forever with the same sound or the same riffs. We try to evolve the music.'
On the criticms that LACUNA COIL's latest album, "Karmacode", has a much more straight-edged rock sound to it:
"I think the evolution is not only on the sound of the band, it's also on your taste. On what you listen to or what inspired you in general in your life. It's altogether a personal change and also a musical reflection of the personal change. Otherwise it would be fake just to do a rock album because you think that it's cooler or because it's easier to do better in the charts. You have to do it because you feel it's the right time for you to do it. We aren't kids anymore and we've been doing rock music for a while now. We are just following our personal growth and our personal experience and the music is reflecting this."
On whether having six members in the band makes it harder to make decisions or split various duties:
"We try to work as much as we can all together. Of course it's not always possible so we try to split the different roles in the band in between the members, like somebody is taking care of the internet, some are taking care of the promotion, some others do management, contact or economical situations. We try to give everybody a role so that everybody works in the same way. We share all the income in six so there is no discussion about who wrote this or who wrote that. We just write the best music for the band and that's it. We don't write music just because we get 40% of the royalties or something like that. We try to keep it as a good business for everybody and try to keep it active for everybody so everybody feels involved in the band and not left apart from everything. It gets hard when you have somebody who isn't happy anymore. This is a friendship, not only a band. We started the band as friends in the pub so it's not like we were planning to become professional musicians. Everything that happens we have tried to manage as a bunch of friends instead of just some musicians put together to do the band."
On having vocalist Cristina Scabbia as the focal point of the band in the eyes of the media:
"It's something that we have learned to deal with. It's not something that you feel inside the band, it's something that you receive from the outside. I think it's the same for every band that has a nice female in it. I think we have learnt how to manage it. If it can bring some different attention to the band it's fine. The most important thing is that when people come to the show, they come and see a show and not beauty on the stage and that's it. Cristina can use her image but she is also a very good singer and a very good entertainer live. So the most important thing for us is that she isn't just an image. She also can also play with her image and sometimes with the help of some media that is a bit too much exposure. Some people who are more superficial maybe just get that from the band. It's just the way it is. We can't do much about it (and) it's not a big problem for us. We are like a little family, we are all friends (and) we don't really care. We take it more as being a funny thing. People think, 'how can you stay behind such a beautiful girl?' and they don't imagine that for me she's like a sister. She's just like one of the guys in the band. And it's the same for her. It's a completely different situation from inside (the band) than from outside."

Lacuna Coil Comment On Australian Gigantour
LACUNA COIL vocalist Cristina Scabbia and guitarist Cristiano Migliore have both commented on the band's upcoming Gigantour dates in Australia with MEGADETH:
Scabbia: "When I got asked if I wanted to sing a song with Megadeth on the album United Abominations I couldn't believe it, it was such a big honor for me, and a great new experience for sure. But now that we've been invited to be a part of Gigantour, I'm even more excited because we will finally be able to show Australia how Lacuna Coil can kick some serious ass!"
"Not only that, but I'll get to see old friends like DEVILDRIVER. And we can't wait to meet the other bands as well. It's gonna be FUN!" More...
Lacuna Coil Check In From Japan
LACUNA COIL singer Andrea Ferro has issued the following update:
"We just got back from Tokyo where we performed at the Loudpark festival together with bands like ARCH ENEMY, SAXON and MARILYN MANSON, just to name a few... It has been simply a blast, our first time ever in this country and we are already excited [about] coming back. The show has been full of energy with a surprisingly loud Japanese crowd — they were singin' along, jumping and screaming like crazy. Long signin' sessions and heavy interview schedule. We've met also a lot of friends from bands like TRIVIUM, MACHINE HEAD, HANOI ROCKS. We've been to eat some great sushi, drink some fine sake and of course to the anime/manga store. The city is unbelieavable and the people are really kind and respectful. Domo arigato!" More...
