Guitarist, singer, and Producer Dario Lorina, best-known as a longtime member of Black Label Society (2014 to present), has launched new band, Dark Chapel.

Led by Lorina and also featuring Brody DeRozie (Guitar), Mike Gunn (Bass), and Luis Silva (Drums), the band will release debut album, Spirit in The Glass, on February 28, 2025 on MNRK Heavy.

The album’s first single, “Glass Heart”, is out now alongside a video.

Dario Lorina says:

’Glass Heart’ is a lyrical and almost cinematic musical story that started with a riff and lyrically stemmed from emotion. That emotion created an imagery for me that I began writing about as if that feeling was a painting I was writing to describe.

As for the album, he explains:

This is a culmination of all artistic influence, whether musical or otherwise.
