FULCI: Italian death metal force to release soundtrack of new game and comic book "Cyberflesh"


Notorious Italian death metal force FULCI rises again to carry horror and death metal to the masses around the world.


Today, FULCI are proud to announce a new 2-track collaboration with Italian electronic project TALPAH, available now via Time To Kill Records.


The music has been conceived as the soundtrack to Hollow Press’ new game and comic book “Cyberflesh”.


"Cyberflesh" - created by Simone Alberto Grifone (game designer), David Genchi (drawings) and Marco Taddei (texts), and published by Hollow Press - is a new entity where extreme music, horror comics and dark weird experience merge.


TALPAH’s relentless percussion and hypnotic soundscapes blend with FULCI’s distorted guitars, enveloping the listener in a vortex of digital terror and fascination. FULCI’s guttural vocals merge with TALPAH’s distortions and glitches, creating a dissonant harmony that resonates in the soul of anyone venturing into the darkness of this unique collaboration.

FULCI commented:


“When TTK and Hollow Press asked us to collaborate on creating a soundtrack for the game ‘Cyberflesh’, we immediately accepted. ‘Cyberflesh’ is a very splatter and violent comic. Moreover, the project had many similarities with the legendary collaboration between Games Workshop, Earache, and Bolt Thrower for the release of the album "Realm of Chaos" in 1989.

The title ‘Cyberflesh’ inspired us to create a soundtrack capable of blending human sounds (instrumentals) with cyber sounds (electronic). To compose the two tracks, we involved our friend and artist Talpah, whose sound design managed to amplify both the sonic violence and the eerie atmospheric parts of the tracks.

Even the choice of audio media was not random. We chose to release the tracks on super limited floppy disks and CDs with graphics similar to CD-ROMs. These media, along with a dedicated comic book illustrated by Genchi, will be included in an ultra-exclusive long box. Thanks to Time To Kill and Hollow Press for making all of this possible”.


Hollow Press was founded by Michele Nitri in 2015 to publish what he struggled to find in the market at that time. They focus on underground comics with dark weird fantasy themes, targeting an international audience by primarily publishing in English. Believing in the global presence of the underground and the unifying power of shared interests among fans worldwide, they prioritize individual editorial care for each work. In 2022, the company ventured into gaming, becoming one of the pioneers focusing on both comics and games. In 2023, it evolved into Hollow Hydra, a multi-headed entity with collaborators dedicated to avant-garde artistry, ensuring the underground artistic movement continues to thrive.
