Octavia Sperati is a Norwegian, predominantly female gothic/doom metal group from Bergen, known for the debut album Winter Enclosure.

Described in the available review as an all-female reality (with a session drummer), Octavia Sperati's sound on Winter Enclosure is guitar-driven with icy piano atmospheres and Nordic melancholy. The review cites influences such as 3rd And The Mortal (Kari Rueslåtten era), mid-1990s English doom (Anathema) and compares aspects to The Gathering.

The available review praises Octavia Sperati's debut Winter Enclosure for its doom-tinged Nordic melancholy, guitar-driven arrangements and strong female performances. Influences cited include 3rd And The Mortal, Anathema and The Gathering; standout tracks mentioned are "Lifelines of depths", "Wasted on the living", "Hymn" and "Hunting eye".

For:Listeners of gothic and doom metal, fans of female-fronted metal, and followers of Norwegian melancholic metal.

 In an era where gothic metal has become a useless sonic and imaginary cliché, it seems absurd to think that five women can take up instruments and, with their own hands, create an album of medium-high quality, promoting first and foremost their own music rather than their image.
