BLACK LABEL SOCIETY Guitarist DARIO LORINA Forms DARK CHAPEL, Set To Release Debut Album Spirit In The Glass By Larry Petro, News Monkey Friday, November 15, 2024 @ 11:18 AM
Guitarist/singer/producer Dario Lorina, best-known as a longtime member of BLACK LABEL SOCIETY (2014 to present), is launching his brand new band, DARK CHAPEL.
Led by Lorina and also featuring Brody DeRozie (Guitar), Mike Gunn (Bass), and Luis Silva (Drums), the band's airtight guitar-craft and sludgy grooves with magnetic melodies, bluesy phrasing, and grunge mystique are spotlighted on their debut album, Spirit in The Glass, which is due out February 28, 2025 on MNRK Heavy.
The album's first single, "Glass Heart", was released on all digital outlets. A video for the song can be seen on KNAC.COM HERE.
Dario's gritty delivery on the song takes hold on a hypnotic hook, bleeding into a fret-burning lead punctuated by dramatic bends. ""Glass Heart" is a lyrical and almost cinematic musical story that started with a riff and lyrically stemmed from emotion," he reveals. "That emotion created an imagery for me that I began writing about as if that feeling was a painting I was writing to describe."
Striking an elusive balance between dark and heavy, ethereal and passionate, Spirit in The Glass is as Lorina describes, ""This is a culmination of all artistic influence, whether musical or otherwise."
"The guitar never really left my hands," he laughs. Years of woodshedding followed. At 16 years old, he answered the call to audition for Jani Lane and found himself on the road with the ex-WARRANT frontman shortly thereafter.
Here's the track listing for SPIRIT IN THE GLASS:
