New album “EvAAvE” out today via Minotauro Records
Today Italian doom / sludge masters DI’AUL release their new album “EvAAvE” via Minotauro Records.
To celebrate their fifth record the band unveils the official video for “Duende,”created by Michele Canevari and featuring Sharon Ferrante.
“Taking its name from a book written by Federico García Lorca, the song is an emotional journey rooted in memory while searching for meaning amid the shadows of the past. The track unfolds through heavy riffs and evocative atmospheres, with a latent tension which builds up until it explodes into a melancholic finale. The lyrics are an inner dialogue—a plea suspended between nostalgia and hope, between the desire to return home and the awareness that nothing will ever be the same again” explains band.

Some albums go unnoticed, and then there are those that leave a deep mark, like an engraving on vinyl. EvAAvE, the new album by Di’Aul, belongs to the latter category. A sonic ritual, a journey through the dust and bones of doom, infused with sludge, catharsis, and a visceral urgency that explodes with the power of an electric storm.
There is a sense of vertigo throughout EvAAvE, like an uncertain step on the border between ruin and rebirth, between the weight of the past and the fury of the present.
Di’Aul sculpt sound with hands dirty with earth and ashes, making doom a living language, writhing between poetry and damnation.
EvAAvE stands out for its rich and layered lyricism, rooted in symbolism, existentialism, and the darkness of the human condition. The lyrics shift between dreamlike imagery and visceral reflections, alternating introspection and social critique.
Nature plays a fundamental role, with evocative descriptions and symbols (as in Geosmina and Petricore) that allude to a deep and spiritual connection with the natural world.
The influences of poets like Sylvia Plath and Amelia Rosselli can be felt in the intimate and painful imagery, often associated with contrasting emotions such as loneliness and hope (Duende, Mad Dalena).
Biblical and mythological references (Succubi et Incubi, EvAAvE) add complexity, exploring themes of guilt, redemption, and duality.
The lyrics use a language that shifts between rawness and lyricism. Short, fragmented sentences intertwine with sensory-rich images („Breathing with the other’s lungs“, „Sweat and blood in the air, no despair to bear“), creating a visceral and immersive atmosphere.
Many lyrics play on opposites (life/death, light/darkness, guilt/innocence), reflecting both internal and universal conflict. This is particularly evident in tracks like Tar Wings and EvAAvE.
Recorded live at Vacuum Studio in Bologna under the guidance of Enrico Baraldi, and later mastered by Esben Willems (Monolord, SLOWER) at Berserk Studio in Gothenburg, EvAAvE is a living, pulsating body, made of organic sounds and raw energy, without compromise. Every riff is a boulder, every word a scar on the skin, every track a chapter of a dark liturgy that feeds on sacredness and primal instinct.
With a well-established musical journey and numerous live performances across Italy and Europe, sharing the stage with bands such as Crowbar, Messa, Goblin, Jex Toth, The Ossuary, Geoff Tate, Nibiru, and Ahab, Di’Aulconfirm themselves as one of the most intense and recognizable acts in the heavy underground scene.
