Italian goth metal icons Lacuna Coil have announced that their tenth studio album will be coming early next year. Titled Sleepless Empire, the album arrives on February 14 and comes steeped in conceptually dense themes of paranoia over technology and the existential crisis that the digital age has wrought upon us all. Happy Valentine's Day!
“Sleepless Empire captures, through our eyes, the chaos of a generation trapped in a digital world that never stops, where social media consumes identity and every day pushes us one step closer to becoming soulless zombies," the band explain. "We find ourselves in between, having witnessed a full analogic world and the modern one, confronting the evolution and searching for a true meaning of it all. Throughout every song, the journey is an undercurrent of rebellion, a desperate cry to reclaim oneself in an era that seems to have lost its sense of time and reality.”
