Inchiuvatu (Sicilian: Nailed) is a Sicilian musical group combining symphonic black metal mixed with Sicilian folk melodies played with friscalettu, a traditional Sicilian flute.

I remember only an Italian black metal band, from Sicily... I don't remember their name, but they sung in Sicilian dialect! They had unique atmospheres... I was absolutely thrilled.
—Fernando Ribeiro[5]

The sound of Inchiuvatu is often compared with that of many other symphonic black metal bands like Emperor or Dimmu Borgir, but their continuous link with the Sicilian traditions make their compositions unique.[citation needed]

The principal lyrical themes are sex, anti-Christianity and existential drama, synthetised with the expression "Drama-Sex-Christ".

"Inchiuvatu" (nailed) isn't related only to Jesus but express the inability of the man to face and sort out the great existential question of the meaning of life.[6]
