SIGILLUM S have been exploring unknown territories among extreme electronics, fringe acoustics and occultist noise since 1985.
With an original line-up of Italian experimental electronic composers Eraldo Bernocchi, Paolo L Bandera and Luca Di Giorgio, throughout their 40-year gestation, the noise merchants have worked with musicians including Ain Soph, The Sodality, Gerstein, Iugula-Thor, Out Of Body Experience, Bill Laswell, Zu, Crisis, Thomas Felhmann, Gudrun Gut, Toshinori Kondo, SH Fernando and the Wordsoundcrew, Dive , Colin Edwin, sculptor Milo Sacchi, multimedia artist Petulia Mattioli and many others. Having toured extensively throughout Europe and Canada in the early part of their career, the result has been an endless series of evolution, from the droning ritualism and ethnic explorations of the late '80s through to the surreal science fiction soundtracks of the '90s, to the super deep complexity of the new millennium. SIGILLUM S have been constantly evolving. The current formation consists of original members Eraldo Bernocchi and Paolo L. Bandera with the addition of multi-instrumentalist Bruno Dorella and visual artist Petulia Mattioli.
On new album 'Aborted Towns, The Deadly Silence Before Utopia' SIGILLUM S continue to develop their own brand of post-industrial audio investigations, employing sound as a tool for mapping the subconscious and a reconfiguration of cognitive processes.
"With 'Aborted Towns' we tried once again to expand our sonic vision, pushing further into the realms of immersive, cinematic sound design. I see dystopian cityscapes where decay and transformation collide in waves of shadowy textures, fractured rhythms, and spectral atmospheres. Each track feels like a fragment of an abandoned future, a lost reel of sound documenting a world teetering on the edge of oblivion," says Bernocchi.
Tracks such as 'Lemur Agony' and 'Forgotten Utopias' exist in an ever-changing continuum of harsh, irregular beats with sudden shifts in experimental atmospheres, while 'Permafrost' and 'Infective Carnations' are unsettling, decadent electronic mutations.
'Aborted Towns' is more than just music - it is an architecture of sound, a ghostly residue of memories and echoes. The shifting balance between claustrophobic tension and vast, desolate space invites the listener into a hypnotic, unsettling journey. It lingers, seeps into the subconscious, and refuses to be forgotten. Celebrating their 40th anniversary in 2025, SIGILLUM S will perform a series of live shows throughout the year, including a headline show at the Tower Transmissions Festival, Dresden in September.
