Metzengerstein is a Tuscany-based trio formed by members of art collective Ambient-Noise Session who has their debut tape Albero Specchio released by Expo 70 Justin Wright’s Sonic Meditations back in 2013 (and recently re-releases on wax by Italian imprint HARSH).
On March 30 Yerevan Tapes will releases their second effort called Alchemy To Our Days, a brand new sixtrack album where the band explores hallucinating sounds and ritual, mythological abstractions even deeper.
Featuring field recordings from the Temple of Jerusalem by domestic artist Giovanni Lami, sax incursions by Virginia Genta from Jooklo Duo and trumpets by Marco Baldini, Metzengerstein have achieved one more intoxicating work able to convey primordial and mystical feelings, wisely manipulating the tools of kraut rock, space rock and psychedelia.
Limited edition of 100 on black tape cassette. Comes with free digital download code.
Includes unlimited streaming of Alchemy to our Days
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

This album is still the best example of the Italian underground experimental scene, as well as nailing the whole "Italian Occult Psychedelia" aesthetic. This has to be one of the most underrated albums of the 2010s. ALWAYSmusic

What happened to these guys? I just love this sound and aesthetic. Really niche, though. Surprisingly relaxing and accessible. I hope more people discover this band, as I can imagine many people enjoying this. ALWAYSmusic

I was on a train travelling to Seefeld in Austria and had nothing but the Alps to look over from the windows. This was a perfect compliment to the environment I was in Robert A Johnson
