Bedsore

Booking Agent : Marie Leclère

From the Eternal City, BEDSORE are like a wounded dream pulsing in darkness, an aural oracle shaping, at times, the Agitation and the Sublime.

Since 2018, the act has quickly emerged from the Italian underground with a distinct synthesis of extreme metal, 1970s progressive rock heritage, and cinematic horror atmospheres, withdrawing a sound at once baroque and primeval, oneiric and violent.

Their debut Hypnagogic Hallucinations (2020, 20 Buck Spin), revealed Bedsore’s fascination with the intersection of such contrasted elements, earning attention for their brave blend, which they further explored on their 2022 split with Mortal Incarnation.

With Dreaming the Strife for Love (2024, 20 Buck Spin), Bedsore elevated their formula into a shape that once and for all defies any definition, suspended between Renaissance mysticism and metal catharsis, where a layered musical masquerade plays amid graceful passages and howls of blood and fever. Inspired by the enigmatic 15th-century book Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, the album merged an everlasting metal foundation with prominent progressive constructions, unfolding as a hero’s journey where love contends with decay, where matter dissolves into dreams, and fears walk beside ecstasy. Bedsore weaved a variegated sonic architecture, shifting from biting riffs and screams to tender soaring melodies and hybrid orchestral-like instrumentation. The sinuous structures of the tracks, their dynamic tempo changes and the aerial acoustic interludes, mirror the dreamlike odyssey of Poliphilo’s voyage by constantly alternating between tension and release, chaos and harmony.
