Die italienischen Death/Doomer NOVEMBRE ließen kürzlich verlautbaren, dass ihr siebentes Album am 1. April 2016 erscheinen wird. Es trägt den Titel „Ursa“ und wird via Peaceville Records. Anders Nyström (Katatonia) wird darauf einen Gastauftritt haben, Dan Swanö war für den Mix zuständig und das Cover-Artwork stammt von Travis Smith.
Frontmann Carmelo Orlando äußerte sich dazu wie folgt: „This album is a very important step in my life. It got me closer to what some may call ‘maturity’. I’ve been able to delve even deeper into the chasm of the subconscious and unearth gems I didn’t think existed. Lyrically and conceptually I explored new shores. I moved my ever-inwards headlights, and for the first time I dared to point them outwards, against the squalor of this Orwellian apocalypse we’re committing towards the Earth and its sons, on a daily basis, in quasi-total indifference.
The album is indeed called „Ursa“ (the acronym for “Union des Républiques Socialistes Animales”), which was the title initially chosen for the French translation of George Orwell’s masterpiece novel ‘Animal Farm’.”
