Rome, Italy (1990 – present)
Novembre is a band from Rome, Italy. Their music consists of progressive/doom/death metal elements. Novembre was formed in 1990, under the name of Catacomb. Novembre is lyrically themed towards dreams, nature, personal struggles and landscapes. Novembre is currently signed to Peaceville Records.
They have made a solid impression upon both the death metal and atmospheric metal scenes with equally strong results. Ever since their inception, word about the group has spread among the underground scene on a worldwide basis.
It was back in September 1990 when the two brothers Carmelo Orlando (guitars and vocals) and Giuseppe Orlando (drums) formed the band CATACOMB.
About a year later, in November 1991 they released their first demo, ‘Unreal’. Despite its poor sound-quality it immediately raised peoples’ interest among the then-flourishing death metal scene. The 7” EP ‘The Return of the Ark’ (released by Sacra Sindone Records) followed in early 1993 and due to its unusual mix of melancholic gothic doom with classic influences caused even more exposure and popularity in the world-wide underground.
Soon after they renamed the band NOVEMBRE, as the former moniker did not represent the bands steadily progressing sound anymore.
Things finally felt right and around the same time NOVEMBRE signed to Polyphemus Records.
In the Fall of 1994 the band recorded their highly-acclaimed debut, Wish I Could Dream It Again… in Dan Swano’s Unisound Studios.
This was right around the same time as other leaders of the initial atmospheric scene recorded their first and early albums, making NOVEMBRE among the first bands inventing and playing this sound.

Funny. Who interchanged all those titles? Same thing as in Katatonia. Nevertheless, some songs really meet my taste. Great vocals and melodies.

I think Novembre is one of the most talented bands in metal nowadays. Noone has such a wide and eclectic range of influences in their music. They're definitely underrated.

Dream's d'Azur is better than Materia and Blue IMO. And i have to listen their old album.

The Blue is plenty melodic but it's not melodic a la Yngwie Malmsteen or needlessly weaving sweeps in Arabian played backwards or something. If anything it deserves to be the romantic counterpart to Daylight Dies' "Dismantling Devotion."

I guess I don't really know the difference between what's on "The Blue" and what other albums they've done, because I felt like they were pretty close to Melodeath, but I guess they're not. I mean, I feel like they almost resemble Katatonia, and they're not melodic, really, but just things about "The Blue" make me feel like it should be some sort of Melodic Metal.

Pardon me, did I say only The Blue was an instant classic? I'll go as far as to say everything they've put out is. I might be fanboying but God damn are these guys good.
