He is a member of extreme metal band [Ephel Duath](/source/Ephel_Duath_(band)), a band he started in 1998.[1]

## Career

Outside of Ephel Duath, he has recorded with The *Karyn Crisis Band* (of whom the two were married) and with guitarist [Eraldo Bernocchi](/source/Eraldo_Bernocchi) on the Parched project, releasing a CD of music of "long, barren, pensive, delicate, touching, harrowing road open to only those who know what they should say, yet decide to mutter no word at all". He more recently recorded as a project called 'Manuscripts Don't Burn', a solo project using material written from the *Karyn Crisis Band*.[2][3] as well as collaborating with Karyn on an [Aborym](/source/Aborym) album. Davide continued writing and recording with Ephel Duath in 2012 as a complete band, after signing the band with Agonia Records, and released *Hemmed By Light, Shaped By Darkness* in late 2013. In late 2014, he disbanded Ephel Duath.[4]

In March 2015, he collaborated with Karyn Crysis to release the album [Gospel of the Witches](/source/Karyn_Crisis'_Gospel_of_the_Witches).[2] Additionally, he has been a member of *Niō*[5] and *Howling Sycamore*,[2] with [Watchtower](/source/Watchtower_(band)) vocalist [Jason McMaster](/source/Jason_McMaster), who released their debut album in December 2017. In mid 2018, Davide became a member of the San Francisco metal band [Botanist](/source/Botanist_(band)).
