Metamorfosi
Metamorfosi are an Italian progressive rock band from Rome, formed in 1970 by vocalist Davide “Jimmy” Spitaleri and keyboardist Enrico Olivieri with Roberto Turbitosi and Gianluca Herygers. After ...e fu il sesto giorno (1972) and the acclaimed Inferno (1973, Vedette), they disbanded, reuniting in 1995 and releasing Paradiso (2004). The group is noted for Dante-inspired concept suites and prominent keyboards; later releases include Purgatorio.06 Reviews

It’s a very interesting modern reinterpretation of Dante’s Divine Comedy, with the inclusion of typical characters from today’s society.
The work on mellotron and keyboards is nothing short of fantastic, with escapes and incursions worthy of the best Italian keyboardists of the time.

What makes this Opera and the Group unique in originality is that, besides the damned souls Dante encounters, the sinners of our time, such as drug dealers, racists, and politicians, also suffer 'in the heat and cold.'
The Inferno of Metamorfosi begins with the verses: 'On the ruins of ancient cities grow flowers without color.'

"The sound of synthesizers transports us through a dreamlike journey, where the real world and Dante's hell intertwine."
"An album for everyone: fans of prog, those curious about the genre, and lovers of good music."
