Fresh off of leaving a mark on their fiery debut, Ponte Del Diavolo are fanning the flames with their hotly-anticipated sophomore album. Drawing from the dark and dancing depths of the band’s dueling bassists and the raw spirit of their fiery live ritual, De Venom Natura delivers an all the more potent twist of blackened post-punk.
De Venom Natura comes out tomorrow, Friday, February 13 on Season of Mist, but you can hear all seven intoxicating songs today by listening to the full album stream below.
Pre-order & pre-save
At the heart of De Venom Natura lies a central concept: Nature as both seduction and toxin, creation and annihilation. The record contemplates poison not as mere destruction, but as a transformative agent within an eternal cycle of life, death and rebirth. Across seven tracks, including “Lunga vita alla necrosi,” and “Il veleno della Natura,” the band articulate this duality through ritualistic repetition, lyrical invocations and a tension-driven sonic architecture.
Emerging from Turin’s underground in 2020, Ponte Del Diavolo have forged a distinct identity rooted in doom, black metal, post-punk and wave. Their uncommon dual-bass configuration remains central to the project’s character, grounding rhythmic guitars beneath wave-tinged female vocals and a raw, dynamic drum pulse. On De Venom Natura, that foundation is pushed further. The core instrumentation was recorded live at The Deepest Sea studio in Turin to preserve the immediacy and tension of their performances.
With De Venom Natura, Ponte del Diavolo extend their boundaries without abandoning their core identity. It is a record that channels stage-born intensity into a controlled studio ritual, where poison becomes revelation and decay becomes a form of consciousness.
PONTE DEL DIAVOLO craft a focused blend of doom, black metal, post‐punk, and wave—an aesthetic they call “blackened post‐punk.” Wave‐tinged female vocals anchor the project’s flaming core, supported by an uncommon dual‐bass setup that grounds the rhythmic guitars and a raw, dynamic drum pulse.
The result is an immersive, tension‐driven sound. Following the initial release of three EPs, the band signed to Season of Mist and unveiled their first full-length album, Fire Blades from the Tomb.
After two years on the road - appearing at leading European festivals such as Roadburn and Inferno in support of their debut - Ponte del Diavolo return with “De Venom Natura,” a record that extends and refines their musical boundaries.
