Release Date: May 12, 2023, “Misanthropic Euphoric Essentia” is the debut album by the Italy-based alternative gothic metal project KAHRMALIA. During a journey made of nine tracks, the mastermind Gabriel Cavazzini portrays the different facets of that prism called Darkness. Struggles, inner fragility and buried memories are narrated in a melancholy tone, aware that the discovery of our “dark side” is an obligatory step towards full awareness of the Self.

The Cult turned more metal, The Cure were more singable. Fields Of The Nephilim had better hats. But when it came to full-on, paisley-shirt, pointy-shoes pretensions, only The Sisters Of Mercy were more all-out gothic than THE MISSION. The two acts competed for chart action between 1986 and ’90, before falling victim to alt rock and the vanishing underground, but their legacies stand tall.
THE MISSION’s 1986 debut, ”God’s Own Medicine”, was massively ostentatious (the reverb; soundscapes; Led Zeppelin-esque atmospheres; showing off!) – and good, remaining as one of the finest examples of ’80s goth rock&pop.
