Formed in the gray and dreary fall of 2015, HAUNTED conjure up sub-sabbathian spells from the dark sources of Etna, in Catania, Sicily. Long and painful dirges drive the candidate through murky hells of penance and distortion winding through the steep tunnels of Evil and Death.

https://ripplemusic.bandcamp.com/album/stare-at-nothingAt the end of 2023, HAUNTED joined Ripple Music, entrusting the release of their third invocation "Stare at Nothing" for the first half of 2024.
The conceptual gestation of this new album has deep roots. The seeds are study, listening and experience. HAUNTED have tried to tell their journey of self-awareness, reunion, pacification, ideological freedom, and recognition of the Self and its complete destruction. They didn't want to create nothing - and so they just stared at it. Lyrically, the band deals with "the Man who chooses, sees and accepts himself, and doesn't come to terms with the Universe, with a God, with the Infinite, but only with himself - through a reverse mystical journey."
"Stare At Nothing" was recorded & mixed by Carlo Longo at NuevArte Studio, Catania, and mastered by Esben Willems at Studio Berserk, Gothenburg. The artwork was designed by Kristina Lerner.
