DAWN OF A DARK AGE new album will be "Ver Sacrum"

Their last album "Transumanza" confirmed DAWN OF THE DARK AGE as one of the most interesting acts of the Italian Extreme Metal scene. Now after 2 years of hard work Vittorio Sabelli, eclectic mastermind of the project, is ready to present the first details of the new album that will be titled "Ver Sacrum" and is ready to be released on December 12th, 2025 via My Kingdom Music.

For the first time the album, now in the final stages of mastering, sees the presence of a new singer, well known to the Italian scene, who we will present in the next few days and above all it has been conceived to be brought on stage with exclusive live shows programmed for December where they will be able to show the extreme epicness and avantgardish sound of their music.

This is what Vittorio Sabelli wanted to tell us about the new DAWN OD A DARK AGE album "Ver Sacrum": "It was incredible to work on the new album "Ver Sacrum." For the first time, it seemed extremely linear and fast, as if everything was already written and simply needed to be extracted like a sculpture from the existing marble. The theme once again harks back to the Samnites, and in particular to the so-called Sacred Spring (Ver Sacrum in Latin), a social and religious ritual common in pre-Roman times.

Musically, it picks up where "Transumanza" left off, but everything becomes even darker and more sinister, with truly ancient atmospheres that leave an indelible mark on this work.

The new singer's contribution was also great, lending an absolutely primordial and arcane touch to this work, which I believe is necessarily the most mature, refined, and profound album I've ever created. I can't wait for you to hear it!".

We just have to wait; extreme music, folk music and jazz will once again blend together in a balance, capable of telling stories of times gone by in an absolutely unique and precious way.
