Souls Of Diotima
History
Souls Of Diotima is an Italian female fronted metal band. Giorgio Pinna, drummer and lyricist and his brother founded Souls Of Diotima in Sassari, Italy, back in 2004.
Souls Of Diotima is a band with a unique style, featuring recognizable elements of traditional, progressive and symphonic metal, as well as unconventional elements, woven together musically in a powerfully expressive new way. The signature sound of Souls Of Diotima features unforgettable orchestral and special effects, combined with complex musical arrangements and compositions, and powerful, mesmerizing vocals. The band's music engages all of the senses and conveys a feeling similar to watching an epic movie, creating strong visual scenes, and almost tangible mental images.
The music and special effects are not actually a movie, so the Souls' music is not technically cinematic, but the music experience and impact is so similar to watching an extraordinary film that listeners have a "dream" experience. It combines the symphonic grandeur of the orchestra and special effects with elements of progressive metal, while always maintaining an underlying foundation of pure metal. All of these elements are composed in a new and unique way, resulting in an experience for metal fans that is both intense and exhilarating.
The particular characteristic of Souls Of Diotima is its style, which recalls Mediterranean atmospheres and traditions. In fact, the band comes from Sardinia, an island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. This makes its sound and its style unique and recognizable. It could almost be thought of as "Mediterranean metal".
