Last week, LACUNA COIL released the official lyric video for the band’s recently announced single “Never Dawn”. “Never Dawn” showcases LACUNA COIL‘s signature sound with its haunting melodies, powerful guitar riffs, and the mesmerizing vocal harmonies of Cristina Scabbia and Andrea Ferro. The song delves into the depths of the human spirit, exploring themes of resilience, inner strength, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness.
For “Never Dawn”, LACUNA COIL partnered with CMON, the renowned board game publisher behind the popular game “Zombicide”. “Never Dawn” is a notable addition to CMON‘s latest Kickstarter project, “Zombicide: White Death”, and was initially used as an instrumental version in a campaign trailer. The game introduces new characters, mechanics, and challenges for players to overcome, and the upcoming “White Death” version features five LACUNA COIL limited-edition survivor tokens.
Cristina commented on the new song: “First presented, in its instrumental version, in the trailer for Zombicide White Death game, and then in its live version, during our last sold-out show in L.A., we’re so incredibly thrilled to finally unveil the full version of ‘Never Dawn’! This song is a fierce survival journey throughout grotesque and frozen lands, where the power within is the main weapon. Ignite the fire in your heart and enjoy the listening!”
Designed by Nicolas Raoult, one of the designers of the original “Zombicide”, along with Jean-Baptiste Lullien and Raphaël Guiton, “Zombicide: White Death” is a sequel to the fantasy spinoff version of “Zombicide” with a new wintery theme. The third installment in this series, it follows “Zombicide: Black Plague”, which introduced the concept in 2016, and “Zombicide Green Horde”, which came out in 2018.
