BAND OF THE DAY: BLACK CHAPEL

Published:

Guitarist/singer/producer Dario Lorina, best-known as a longtime member of Black Label Society (2014 to present), launches 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 Dark Chapel‘s debut album, Spirit in The Glass, due out  28th February 2025 on MNRK Heavy.

The album’s first single ‘Glass Heart’ was released today and the video can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/ksQaN83tzR0

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 Dario describes “…a culmination of all artistic influence, whether musical or otherwise.” 

Dario Lorina began his professional career in 2006 at age 16 as the touring guitarist with the late Jani Lane (ex-Warrant). At age 19, he joined veteran metal act Lizzy Borden, whom he toured with for four years. Dario released two instrumental records with Mike Varney on Shrapnel Records in 2013 and 2017 titled Dario Lorina and Death Grip Tribulations. He joined Black Label Society on 1st January 2014, and has since been touring worldwide alongside Zakk Wylde, performing on guitar, piano, and backing vocals. Dario dueled solos with Zakk Wylde on Black Label Society‘s 2022 release Doom Crew Inc. and joined him on the January 2022 cover of Guitar World Magazine.
