Stage of Reality

What is real? Is the everyday life or maybe is the representation we give of it when we are on the stage? Or else, is life itself a stage on which we forcedly wear masks trying in vain to hide our fragility? The answer is not given, but keep questioning and make others question themselves is the aim of the brand new album: STAGE OF REALITY.
Darker tones and a more aggressive sound set this album apart from the precedent, but the fusion between alternative rock and progressive metal remains the distinguishing mark of the band. Complementarity is the key of the composition process: the violent rhythmical patterns of the drummer Daniele Michelacci and the bassist Marco Polizzi meet the clear and powerful voice of the new singer, Damiano Borgi, whilst guitar lines are studied to give both Andrea Neri and Bernardo Nardini space to enlighten their peculiarities.
For all these reasons, the choice of a self titled album was necessary. STAGE OF REALITY is a definition of identity but also the work which introduces the band to the public directly and authentically.
STAGE OF REALITY is also enriched by the participation of two great artists: Blaze Bayley (Iron Maiden, Wolfsbane) and Amanda Somerville (Avantasia, Epica, Kiske/Somerville, Trillium). Bayley will perform "Warlord", whilst Amanda will give her voice to the cover "Back to black" by Amy Winehouse.
