Disarmonia Mundi is an Italian melodic death metal band. One of its members is Soilwork singer Björn Strid .
Band history
Disarmonia Mundi was founded in early 2000 by the Italian Ettore Rigotti. After many changes in the line-up, the band recorded the album Nebularium in their own studio in January 2001 . Convinced by the album, the Italian record label Self Distribuzione and the Russian label CD-Maximum signed a record deal with Disarmonia Mundi. After the recordings there were some problems within the band, eventually the singer Benny Bianco Chinto left the band and was replaced by Claudio Ravinale.
For the upcoming album they signed a record deal with Scarlet Records . Before the recordings, Björn Strid became aware of the band and decided to join in as the second singer. Fragments of D-Generation was recorded in our own studio, and mastering was done by Goran Finnberg in the Swedish mastering room . The finished album was released on May 17, 2004, and a music video was shot for the piece Red Clouds .
Before the recording of the third album Mind Tricks Mirco Andreis left the band to concentrate on his career as a director of video clips. The album was mixed and mastered by Alessandro Vanara at The Metal House in Italy and was released on June 12, 2006. Mirco Andreis made a video for the track Celestial Furnance .
On June 26, 2009, Nebularium was re-released together with The Restless Memoirs (EP) in an elaborately designed digipak version. Nebularium contains the same songs with more progressive pieces that were featured on the 2001 album. The EP The Restless Memoirs contains both older and newer pieces from the years 1999 to 2006. This was followed in December of the same year by the fourth album The Isolation Game on Coroner Records . In contrast to its predecessors, long keyboards were saved, but the guitar riffs came more to the fore. In 2012 Rigotti and Ravinale founded the band The Stranded with guitarist Elliot Sloan and keyboardist Alessio NeroArgento .
The fifth album Cold Inferno was released on June 9, 2015 .
