OvO:
Based in Ravenna, Italy, OvO was formed in 2000 by Stefania Pedretti and Bruno Dorella, and to date have released nine albums. OvO has been featured in The Quietus, Stereogum, Cvlt Nation, and many more forward-thinking web properties. The band has performed at festivals on nearly every continent, and have toured extensively, with the likes of Lightning Bolt, Zu, and many others.
Italian avant-doom/noise rock duo OvO are set to release their eleventh studio album, Gemma, on October 3, 2025, via Canadian label Artoffact Records. Celebrating 25 years of activity, Gemma promises a continued journey of reinvention, pushing the boundaries of electronics and experimental sound that have become their hallmark. Each track on the album is described as an “act of creation,” an “alchemical passage through the elements” that seeks to foster “new weird life.” The album’s title itself, Gemma, serves as a manifesto of transformation and an invitation to regenerate and rediscover hidden potential within everything.
The album’s first single, “Opale,” featuring the abrasive vocals of Lord Spikeheart, offers a glimpse into the evolving sound of OvO. “Opale” immediately showcases a breakdown of traditional musical genres, blending Bruno Dorella’s intricate programming with Stefania Pedretti’s distinctive guitars and vocals. The collaboration with Lord Spikeheart, an artist with whom OvO shares a deep, unconventional affinity, adds a dance-like pulse to the track, hinting at iridescent new directions for the duo, unconstrained by predetermined structures.
