Since forming in 1994 in Milan, Lacuna Coil have become one of Italy’s most celebrated rock exports, their signature gothic metal stylings outlasting the rise and falls of grunge, nu metal, emo and just about everything else.
New studio album Sleepless Empire, the band’s tenth, finds the five-piece on sparkling form, and frontwoman Cristina Scabbia remains a cornerstone of the modern metal scene, be it through her work with the band or her prolific status as a gamer and streaming personality.
