HESPERIA - Picenum (True Marchigian Black Metal Renaissance) [CD]

Experience the chilling depths of winter and historical Black Metal with HESPERIA's Picenum (True Marchigian Black Metal Renaissance). This album is a profound continuation of Fra Li Monti Sibillini, expanding its thematic scope to encompass the entire Marche region, anciently known as Picenum. Delve into the darker facets of the late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance, as interpreted through the lens of the artist's homeland.

Album Concept:

The album unfolds across three distinct parts, each exploring the rich and often macabre history, folklore, and legends of the Marche region.

• Part 1: History and Dark Legends - Journey through tales of the Da Varano Lords' rebellion in 1375, the enigmatic Rocca di Pitino with its deconsecrated church and cemetery, and the fearsome Roccaccia fortress, home to a warlord necromancer.
• Part 2: Folklore and Regional Myths - Encounter the Marchigian werewolf (lu lupu manní), the mischievous Mazzamurello sprite, and the Sdrega witch. This section features narration from the artist's grandmother (R.I.P.) and incorporates a significant amount of Marchigian dialect alongside Italian.
• Part 3: Ritorno fra li monti Sibillini - This concluding part circles back to the themes of the previous album, focusing on goat-fairies, the Sibylla, and the historical exploration of the Sibylline Mountains by Chevalier De la Sale.

Picenum (True Marchigian Black Metal Renaissance) offers a unique and immersive Black Metal experience, blending historical narrative with regional mythology.
