Copenhagen -based extreme metallers LAMENTARI have announced the release of the band’s highly anticipated debut album “Ex Umbra In Lucem“, which will be coming out on May 24th.

The Danish sextet is a force to be reckoned with in the realm of symphonic black metal, seamlessly blending the darkness of metal with the grandeur of a roaring orchestra. Drawing inspiration from cinematic maestros such as Howard Shore and John Williams, LAMENTARI crafts a sonic tapestry that is both dark and majestic. Influenced by the virtuosity of Yngwie Malmsteen and the atmospheric depth of Dimmu Borgir, this band creates a haunting yet captivating musical experience that transports listeners through ethereal and infernal sonic realms. Their intense and mesmerizing sound has already earned them opportunities to perform at renowned festivals such as Wacken and Copenhell, as well as sharing stages with bands such as Moonsorrow and Tsjuder.

Today, LAMENTARI has revealed the cover art and a poignant new music video for their most ambitious release yet: “Ex Umbra In Lucem” [Latin, Translation: From Shadow Into Light]. Watch the video for the first single “Dolorum Memoria” here:

Dolorum Memoria is a ballad that explores the intense emotions of loss and grief when someone dear passes away“, the band comments. “It reflects on the lengths we go to in order to hold onto the pain of their absence.
