New album, “Materialism”, out on 20th!
‘M A T E R I A L I S M’ is a concept album inspired by Zingonia, a planned city on the outskirts of Bergamo founded in the 1960s as a utopian urban project and now a symbol of decay, alienation and broken promises. Magnitudo transform this setting into a metaphor for contemporary collapse: consumerism, depersonalization and the dominance of matter over spirit.
The album translates this vision into a dense and oppressive sonic mass, built on monumental riffs, crushing rhythms and claustrophobic atmospheres that reflect the weight of an industrial landscape with no future.
Magnitudo is a post/sludge metal trio formed in Bergamo in 2016 by Dario I. (vocals, guitar). Their sound merges post-metal and sludge with a more traditional metal structure. Apocalyptic and alienating themes complete an extreme and visceral sonic offering. The band has released two albums, ‘Si Vis Pacem’ (2016) and ‘Man Against Fire’ (2018), and an EP, ‘Scotoma’ (2023). Over the years, the lineup has solidified with Antonio C. on drums and Marco B. on bass. Live, Magnitudo deliver a dense and suffocating wall of sound, conceived as a direct and brutal experience.
