Chapter 147 - ExpiatoriA

Thirty-five years ago, somewhere in Italy, a dark ritual was held and ExpiatoriA was ushered into this world. Thirty-five years later, the restless spirit of the band rises again, this time to release its first-ever actual album. In this chapter of the Diary, Dylan sits down with Edoardo Napoli, guitarist in the latest lineup for ExpiatoriA, who explains how the band got back together and what it was like to be recruited into it as a fan first, plus hiding the devil's music from his nona, the Italian metal scene waking up, why we're all sinners, and a different view of horror.
