Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
We were born in the south of italy, playing in hot afternoons all for the love of metal and its facets since 2006. we love to feel the riffs the groove and the power of the music, having fun playing and seeing people enjoy our songs that are some kind of our sons. the line up has changed a lot through these years, but we're still toghether with the original threesome dudes, which is Miriam on voice Dario on drum and Marco J on bass and guitars (on studio) by now we've got a new member on guitar and we're getting ready to sweating on stage with him very soon
How would you describe your style? Which bands influenced your music?
viper venom's problem. we don't know how to call our kind of music, nobody has never helped us understand it. we don't know, and maybe this is a golden point for us...we just play what we like, we follow a our band's line style surely influences goes to heavy metal and aggressive like thrash metal with the philosophy of progressive. anyway our tastes in music are different but sure we all like bands as pantera, syphony x, alter bridge, dowm, black label society and so on....
Why should a metalhead buy your demos/albums?
to listen something fresh and a raging angry lady?
What have you released so far and how were your releases received by the public/media?
we did so many demos, you know, since 2006 it's a long way, but the "official" stuff goes from 2007 with "it's so cold outside" a lil demos with 6 tracks. on 2009 we've recorded "Unskinned" in Munich with the german label "Anko Music" we've been toghether untill last year but we've decide to break this collaboration 'cause its ideals didn't fill ours. Our sound is what we decide and what we feel, and is all that you can heard on our last album "In venom veritas" we've recorded it in our own studios and produced all by ourself. we're so proud of the final result as well as our fans that still follow us, they're just amazing!
Do you play live as well? How's your live activity so far?
unfortunatelly our live activity was stopped a lil bit from last year. We full dedicated our time to making new songs for "In venom veritas" concentrating on new songs, in this period lots of things has changed as the split from the label and our ex guitarrist due to strong different musical ideals. but now we're ready to feel the stage again and we really can't wait!
What sould labels/zines/promoters know about your band? Why should they be interested in it?
we've got a great followers that support us and follow our things, I think that it's an important point for a band... and at last but not the least we're really in love with the music we do it with heart!
What plans do you have for the near future as a band?
playing, playing, playing, playing, playing, playing,and playing again!
