We were tired of looking for a booking agency, we were tired of the hundreds of email sent to italian venues with no lucky answers, we were tired of all the money everyone keeps going asking to let us play.

As it’ll be an ongoing tour, follow our stages on the map and, of course, if you’re close enough…come see us! Visit the Tour Page to learn...

Il neo-progressive non è morto. Lo provano ad esempio alcuni elementi di esso rintracciabili senza fatica nella musica di gruppi che hanno raggiunto un successo planetario, come i Muse o i 30 Seconds to Mars. Un fresco gruppo new-prog giunge ora dalla Toscana, per la precisione da Grosseto....

I could only start every review by stating the fact that there’s yet another great band out of the Berlusconi-plagued country. This time we’re talking about a quartet, formed in 2008, and named after a sportscar out of the 70s. These guys do something to me on their debut “Di Carne, Di...
