If the definition “avant-garde black metal” serves to
catalogue all those musicians who, being bound to the first wave of black
metal, wanted to evolve their music and to make experiments with it, Eneth
can surely be part of this category.
Band was born in 1998 by an Davìde's idea, immediately shared by
Alessandro. Their ambitious aim was to combine the violence and the malignity
of black metal with the sweet and decaying notes of the Venetian
Baroque. The first official work is produced in January 2000. It was a
mini-cd entitled “Baroque Esprit”, which earns praises and encouraging
reviews from the specialized press. Venice , the beautiful dying city laid
on the waters and shrouded in mist, is the inspirer muse of the concept
that turns round the music of Baroque Esprit.
The first reactions to Baroque Esprit were excellent and drew the
attention of some important independent labels. With the track “Dominion of
Splendour” Eneth were inserted in the compilation “ Black Tears of
Death vol. VI”, published by the Italian label Black Tears, and with the
track “Mort a Venise” the band appeared in the 6th compilation of the
Lithuanian label Atlantida Records. The mini-cd, even though consisting
only of 2 tracks + intro and outro, positively struck the lovers of the
genre and not only them. The dreaming and decaying atmospheres, the
continuous changes of scenery, the elevated technical level and a really
unique conceptual plan had a vast and diversified public appreciate the
music of Eneth, so in July 2000 the band signed the first promotional
contract with Pulsar Records / Kick Promotion Agency.
Due to line-up problems, the band stopped the activities for a few
time, during which, however, with the help of some session-player the
single Venetian Sunset was recorded. After a period of mature meditation,
the 2002 is the year of the reprisal of the activities, thanks to, above
all, the entry of new and excellent musicians: the drummer Samuel and
the guitarist Nicola.
With this line up, at the end of 2003 Eneth recorded a new promotional
album called “ Aura Sinfonica” .
This album represents a great moment of evolution of the sound, because
each of its tracks is a sort of journey, a sort of introspective
research of what metaphysically goes around Man, his fears, his pains and his
passions. This analysis, however, is moved on a well-defined context,
that is Venice , the misty and obscure labyrinth, where every feeling is
expanded, distorted and moulded. A labyrinth of stone and of water,
where dream, madness, knowledge and illusion coexist, gathering in what we
consider the worthiest virtue: Art.
