Now, after two decades, Thragedium returns, poised to honor the legacy of "Theatrum XXIII" and reclaim their position as one of Portugal's most unique musical entities. Alma Mater Records is the perfect fit.
Lisboa Depois de Morta represents a remarkable leap forward in maturity, and boldness, fearlessly pushing the boundaries of their sound like never before.
At the helm will be four founding members:
João Paulo Farinha– Electric & acoustic guitar, vocals, keyboards, percussion
Nuno Cruz- Vocals
José Bonito- Bass, vocals
César Feiteira – Drums
In this new release, the extensive use of Portuguese traditional instruments, specially the haunting Portuguese Guitar, traditional percussion and evocative choirs, can be heard throughout, all while maintaining their indelible trait of originality.
Ensuring this record has all the ingredients to make it another cult item,Thragedium enlisted the mastering expertise of Jaime Gomez Arellano (Moonspell, Paradise Lost, Ghost, Ulver). Additionally, Hugo Ribeiro (Moonspell) lent his brilliant drumming skills to the album, while Pedro Oliveira (Sétima Legião) graced the band with his vocal talent on Um Mal Necessário.
Completing the team, the cover artwork design was entrusted to the renowned Travis Smith (Slayer, Megadeth, Opeth, Katatonia).
