"Zeena is a death rocker" : Review in Humans vs Robots Online Music Magazine

14/3/2025

0 Comments

 
Big Thanks to Humans vs Robots, Italian online magazine, for today's review of Zeena performing 'These Wounds Never Heal' on the new Sacred Legion album, 'The Higher Unknown'.
Scroll down to read the English version of journalist Max Zarucchi's review, or read the original in Italian HERE.

​English version:

Zeena is a death rocker.

If our attention span when reading an article were the same as it was twenty years ago, the incredibly intense life of a figure like Zeena would deserve several thousand words alone: only in this way would we be able to truly understand how much this featuring of hers is a unique and rare event.

Her relationship with our Sacred Legion certainly didn't start yesterday (she was the one who chose both the band's moniker and the title of the 2020 album The Silent Lineage), but finding her voice on one of their songs is both a surprise for those who listen and a reason - and how could it be otherwise - of infinite pride for the band.

Her deep and hypnotic recitation is undoubtedly the focal point of this brand new These Wounds Never Heal, where the music chosen by our guys to accompany the Divine is a perfect hybrid between the dark hard rock of the seventies and the most direct and evocative death rock of the 80s. There is no room for unnecessary embellishments: the bloody rawness of the piece is more than enough, while it literally kidnaps the soul at first listen.

The Higher Unknown, the album in which this single is present, also gives us other special guests such as Adolphe Violet Le Duc (Chants of Maldoror) and Matteo (Spiritual Bats), which is why it will be difficult, in the genre, to keep up with it until the end of 2025: already a podium album, but it was inevitable for three musicians of the genre. Please take note.

Below, a message from Zeena about a new album she appears on and below that, the music video of the song!

'Very happy to announce the release of the new Sacred Legion album, The Higher Unknown, which includes my guest vocals in the opening song, "These Wounds Never Heal"!
A big thanks to Sacred Legion front-man Fabiano Gagliano for inviting me to collaborate with him on this track.
Each song in the album is powerful and unique, capturing an 80s L.A. atmosphere and vibe. For anyone who enjoys Alternative, Deathrock and Post-punk with hints of Industrial music, this album will be a welcome new addition to your collection.
The cover art is also by Gagliano, whose graphic art is inspired by Italian Renaissance, Pre-Raphaelite, and Symbolist art movements. His illustrations are, in his words, "centred in the representation of the female figure, which embodies to me the idea of poetic beauty."

May Goddess Saraswati (the Goddess of the arts, music, knowledge, and understanding) bless all involved in the creation, partaking and enjoyment of this new release! '

-Om Aim Shreem Hreem Saraswatyai Namah -

For anyone in Rome in March, Sacred Legion officially presents the record with a live concert Saturday March 8 in Rome. For updates follow them on Instagram and/or Facebook.

A Very Big Thanks to Indie Filmmaker Courtney Sell for creating this Magically Charged New Music Video for the Radio Werewolf Classic Song BARBAROSSA!

Summer Solstice is upon us and what better way to celebrate the transitioning season from pastel Spring to Summer bonfires than with the legend of the flame-bearded Barbarossa?!

May your Summer Solstice be marked with renewed energy to facilitate spiritual awakenings and psychonautic victories!
-Om Vajrasattva Hum-

Sacred Legion Debut Album 'Silent Lineage'

4/6/2021

0 Comments

 

​From Zeena:  

“Big Thanks to my dear friend Fabiano Gagliano of the band Sacred Legion for adding me in the acknowledgments of their fantastic new debut album 'Silent Lineage'! At Fabiano's request, both the band name and album title came to me through a divination for the purposes of “christening” the newly formed band. And the rest is history, as they say!
​[Scroll down for my review!]
Picture
Though 'Silent Lineage' is their first album, these well-seasoned musicians have decades-long experience in previous European-based Deathrock and Punk bands. Specifically, Fabiano Gagliano (also a visual artists) is formerly of Chants of Maldoror, Mirko is formerly of Human Disease, and Tony Volume is formerly of Idol Lips. The lads hail from Italy, yet Gagliano, in keeping with the necromantic and nostalgic themes of the album, conjures vocal qualities of deceased cult singers like Marc Bolan, Syd Barrett and Benjamin Orr. The original music in this album reflects an eclectic mix of '80s genres from deathrock, classic goth-rock and post-punk. Yet the music also hints of '70s influences like glam rock, prog rock, early neo-martial and industrial music with choice bits of sampling from cult films that film buffs will enjoy. The stark and mysterious cover art is Gagliano's creation. All lyrics are contained within the CD booklet. An excellent debut for this great new band!

My best wishes and blessings to all involved!
