Dr. Schafausen’s new concept album Psychiatric Dark Hotel is finally out

Dr. Schafausen, stage name of Sergio Pagnacco (Vanexa, ex Labyrinth), now releases Psychiatric Dark Hotel, his third solo album. A disturbing concept that drags us into the nightmare of a dystopian psychiatric hospital.

The lyrics tell of patients prisoners of their own mind, trapped in a spiral of madness, isolation and desperation. The sounds, already known for their intensity, become oppressive and sometimes dark, with saturated and acid guitars, deep bass and pounding drums that create a constant tension.

The urban and claustrophobic atmosphere of Psychiatric Dark Hotel evolves into a soundscape where reality is fragmented and madness takes over. The most violent passages alternate with moments of atmosphere and introspection.

With Psychiatric Dark Hotel, Dr. Schafausen doesn’t just create an album, but a total sensory experience, a sonic dystopia that forces the listener to confront his deepest fears. An unmissable work that pushes metal to its limits, consolidating him as one of the most daring and innovative artists of the Italian metal scene.
