Check out the song »Days Of Nova« from the rejuvenated Italian maestros of atmospheric metal, Novembre – featured exclusively on the new »Volume ’25« label sampler CD.

“This track is a little miracle on its own. At first, it was conceived as an instrumental, then relegated to the B-sides/bonus area, and finally discarded altogether. Then, out of the blue, right in the middle of mixing the upcoming album – Peaceville asks us for a track for the »Volume ‘25« compilation, and it had to be short. Our minds immediately went to »Days Of Nova«, which – in just three days – was literally unearthed and brought back from hell.

There was no time to properly record it, so we decided to use the demo tracks – which totally suck. Oh, you have no idea! But that’s the thing; you’ll never notice – because this is where the supernatural hand of Dan Swanö comes into play. In just half a day, he managed to create this living entity – it sounds like a million bucks, moves, breathes, and speaks to your soul! Yes, in music, the strangest things happen! Enjoy!” – Novembre

The seeds of Novembre were originally planted in September 1990 in Rome, Italy by the brothers Carmelo Orlando (guitars and vocals) and Giuseppe Orlando (drums). Then known as Catacomb, their early recordings of unusual gothic doom metal were to quickly gain the band interest. It was around 1993 that the brothers decided that a name change was in order, and Novembre was born, with the band soaring to the top of the atmospheric death/doom metal mountain in due course.
