Italian darkwave trio Neila Invo just released a brand new single "Madonne Elettriche". This is the last single released with the previous line-up. The band also released a video clip for the single, which was shot by Ema Kaiser, a talented photographer who has previously worked with Ash Code.
Neila Invo's music is a combination of the modern darkwave style infused with a vein of an 80s old-school goth sound and a note of grit stemming from punk. Their first album, Alienation, was released by the German label Young and Cold Records in June 2022.
The new single, "Madonne Elettriche", is inspired especially by the illuminated Madonnas of the alleys of Naples. The band comments: "We imagined that in their stillness observe what happens around them, judging the unseemly behavior of passers. In the video, Our Lady is a punitive figure, she creeps into dreams creating nightmares for sinful people, then appearing to them and striking them by lightning. The melody has a funeral procession rhythm opened by a lugubrious organ, all leading to an almost grotesque parade."
The mixing of the song was edited by Nico Giordano, and the mastering was done by Daniel Hallhuber, who used analogue and digital processes at the Young and Cold Records Studios. Link

"Goth people want to have fun sometimes too. I guess if your listening time is 99% dark, sad songs or evil black metal songs, sometimes you want 1% joy, and here I come." - Franck Hueso
"I find it really bizarre, because right after the concert, you're already on the internet. I mean, come on. It's very different from how it used to be, but it's fine." - Anja Huwe
"All of us want to bring back analogue methods—doing everything by hand. AI is completely outside our creative universe. It's a system designed to make things easier and faster." - Andy Julia
