If you’re in any way familiar with the work of legendary Italian horror director Lucio Fulci and his longtime musical collaborator Fabio Frizzi, you’ll adore this second album by Swedish prog-horror crew Anima Morte. Whilst the entire album harks back to the good old days of [...]

Back in 2008, I was totally blown away by the full-length debut album Face the Sea of Darkness by progressive-rock instrumental combo Anima Morte, who label their style as “vintage Italian horror music from Sweden.” That description is so accurate that casual listeners might have [...]

Swedish instrumental horror progressive metal is how the band Anima Morte is described in their record company info pack. That’s a genre that I haven’t heard of before, and with that kind of musical tag hanging around their necks what do Anima Morte really sound like? Well, [...]

The name ANIMA MORTE as well as the tastefully designed cover artwork brings to mind Giallo and Horror movies from the 1960s/1970s, and this is exactly the intention of this Swedish band. Their second album ‘The Nightmare Becomes Reality’ comes across like a soundtrack for a Horror [...]

“In this day and age where artists and bands are taking the 60’s and 70’s as inspirational grounds a particular release sometimes stands out. Anima Morte is an instrumental band who digs in the soundtrack and big conceptual albums of that time and tries to recreate the [...]

“I first listened to ANIMA MORTE’ “The Nightmare Becomes Reality” not knowing what to expect. I had been assigned the album at random and knew nothing about the band’s sound or history. My first impression was that the music was in the style of classic horror movie [...]
