Cipher Productions

A new devastating alliance in the Italian Power Electronics / Industrial underground. Black Flights marks the first collaboration between: Uncodified, Funerale Classico Italiano (aka Giovanni Maffeis, long-time collaborator of Brighter Death Now), and Wertham / Caligula031.

Black Flights delivers everything you'd expect from this trio: structured, oppressive patterns, high-octane harsh frequencies, distorted field recordings, and vocal. The album is a cold, methodical document of disaster rendered in harsh audio - an autopsy of aviation tragedies through a power electronics lens. A thematic descent into airborne catastrophe, drawing from a wide range of real-life aerial tragedies: hijackings, mid-air explosions, deadly crashes, and terrorist attacks. Each track offers a different lens into the moment when human control fails, and death takes over the sky. Brace! Brace! Brace!

CD comes housed in a six-panel digipack, visually enhanced by digital reinterpretations of Walter Molino’s catastrophic illustrations for La Domenica del Corriere - famed for their sensationalism.
