A split-release between two of the pioneers of Italian extreme metal scene. Each band covers the other, they present from an own each track and cover some well-known tracks too (Type O' Negative, The Beatles). After about one year from their last releases, the "Headhunting" 7"EP for legendary thrash metal band Necrodeath, and "Silence" album for the kings of horror metal CADAVERIA, both bands announced to enter together in recording studio, for the release of a special project. So the bands increase a pact already existing, by sharing two members, such as Flegias aka Marcelo Santos, vocalist for Necrodeath and drummer for CADAVERIA, and GL aka Peter Dayton, bass player for both bands. This cooperation has been defined by Cadaveria herself as "a blood pact between two diabolic entities that will give life to a new irreligious and obscure soul". Flegias also defined this collaboration between these legendary bands as "a pact between these entities, which has been haunting us for some time, and now the time has come to exorcise it, entering together in the same studio". So both bands entered studio early 2016, to record the songs. The final result of this special co-operation is "Mondoscuro", out for the Italian label Black Tears. It's a particular and special release, where these legendary bands have also inverted their roles. In particular, CADAVERIA play Necrodeath's track "Mater Tenebrarum", and Necrodeath play CADAVERIA's "Spell". There are also one new unreleased track for each band, plus two covers. Among the other surprises of "Mondoscuro" there is the participation of Lindsay Schoolcraft from Cradle of Filth, as special guest on vocals. Cover artwork was designed by Italian-Venezuelan digital artist Paolo Perrotta Mazza. Tracks: Mater Tenebrarum (Necrodeath cover) - Spell (Cadaveria cover) - Dominion of Pain (feat.
