Lacuna Coil's Cristina Scabbia - Wikipedia: Fact or Fiction?

[@BarekHalfhand]

This woman is so underrated, it's criminal...

True

[@Dreadpiratetrucker]

I agree 👍

She is cool

[@kingjoe3rd]

i love the a tous le monde set me free version she did with Megadeth

I've met a lot of musicians in my time, but Christina Scabbia is easily one of the friendliest I've ever come across. I've met her twice and she was amazing both times.

You're lucky! I was at an Amaranthe concert in 2014 and two of the guys met us outside, but Elize Ryd didn't come out!

Daniel V Why?

[@gudalpesanz]

dios bananos Celebrities are not nice. They are cortidal. They say what they need in order to get where they are or need to be and if that means being nice to a bunch of grovaling idiots that's what they'll do. Some rock stars are better at it than others, she just happens to be good at it.

[@Jorie921]

She truly is underated at least in the US. Such a beautiful talent attached to a beautiful woman. Seeing lacuna coil live at Aftershock a few years back was truly a dream come true! I hope they come back soon.

[@erikvarusio]

As underrated they might be in US, they wouldn't be here after 20 years if they didn't somehow break through there. Believe me, in italy they're basically nobodies - obviously metal in general isn't that big down here

@@angelarigido7161 that’s like saying a natural body is best and you should never exercise it. Good luck as a 300 lb whale!!

[@angelarigido7161]

No! It's like you just want people to like your idiocy in words, and know you have an equal. People are very brave from behind a screen. I've never read such a stupid comparison to anything in my entire life. Let me guess...you're really 12? You would call somebody a whale because they weigh 300lb? Insensitive narcissists also make terrible singers. Don't YOU agree? Anything colourful a person wears on their face shows signs of an insecurity complex...so you don't want to weigh 300lbs..so you wear a goofy headband instead. Makes sense..to the mentally ill I suppose. Best to run along, before mama catches you on her youtube act again.

[@angelarigido7161]

Singing metal to me, is Death, Mayhem, and Burzum. I sang in Black Sabbath tribute band for 13 years...lol. WHAT type of female metal singer are you btw?...with the look you have, they must be RUNNING

Clara Di Luca hech yeah! the only other artists I listen to on a daily basses are Ozzy, Black Label Society, Lacuna Coil, and joe bonamassa. These bands are wonderful and as far as lacuna coil goes....they have such a unique sound. From a mixing standpoint it just sounds tits on a good stereo, the engineer behind the mixing is a flipping genius :)

[@C.N.A.C.]

Regarding being the "first woman" to do so many of the things she's done; I think the fact that she's not trying to be the "first woman" helps. She's accomplished so many firsts because she doesn't let herself get distracted by her gender. She's not a WOMAN metal singer; she's a metal singer.

She really is nice. So is the rest of the band. They played a small show in my state and just for the heck of it they came at sat at the tables to sign things and talk between sets. I bought a CD when I was there for them to sign but come to find out they already pre-signed it so the only thing we could find was the back of a Shadows Fall poster. They thought it was hilarious.
