Short Bio

The band was formed in L'Aquila in September 1979 with an initial three-member lineup, influenced by the sounds of classic British Hard Rock.
The trio—composed of brothers Silvio and Fabio Japadre, along with Gianni Ferrari—went on to self-produce their first demo in 1984, featuring three tracks.
However, it was in the summer of that same year that the band experienced a turning point with the addition of a second guitarist, Roberto Fontana, who immediately gave greater strength and depth to the sound of the group from L'Aquila.
In 1985, the band entered a professional recording studio in Rome to record their second demo, Hot Staff, which received wide acclaim. They were soon contacted by a Dutch record label to record an album which, however, never been produced due to contractual disagreements.
In the early 1990s, the arrival of Berardo Gasbarri as lead vocalist allowed Fabio Japadre to focus solely on drums. This change marked a shift in the band’s songwriting approach: moving away from a purely Heavy Metal foundation, they gradually embraced a style of Rock that was increasingly open to various influences and crossovers.
In 1995, a third demo was released, and in 2005, they completed their latest work: Ceplsydra, a self-produced album consisting of 12 tracks.
In 2024, they took part in the second live event Italian Metal Heroes in Tarcento, thanks to the invitation of Gianluca Sinicco, the festival’s curator and organizer.
