Necrofilia - Groove / Thrash / Death - Italie

Bio en Anglais :

With over 20 years of career Necrofilia are the only active and still alive metal band in San Marino.

Born in the February of 1996, the first lineup was formed by Francesco Zazzi (vocals and guitar), Daniele Zafferani (bass and backing vocals), Alessandro Casadei (drums) and Davide Benedettini (2nd guitar). This line up has been unchanged until 1998, year when Necrofilia take the first demo. After several weeks the band made the first line-up changes: Casadei and Benedettini quit the band and they were replaced by Claudio Sensoli on drums and Marco Urbinati on guitar.

With this line up, Necrofilia published the first record “Lost in Chaos” and received a really good review from many important Italian metal magazines (Metal Shock and Metal Hammer). Thanks to this success and the victory of the contest “Suona con il Mito” Necrofilia opened for Paul Di’Anno in Rome on 29 October 2001. In the next months Necrofilia played other concerts around Italy: the most important date was absolutely when Necrofilia opened for Crackdown and Behemoth.

Eventually Necrofilia lost Marco Urbinati, replaced by Fabio Pioli. With this line-up the band returned to the recording studio for the second self-made album “Crush Test”. After many concerts around Italy, the band took a change in June 2016: Fabio Pioli quit and Luca Urbinati replaced him. With this new line-up the band har recorded the 3rd full length : “rHELLigion”, published in March 2019.

Working Klass Heroes - Rock Us / Metal / Electro - Perpignan

Working Klass Heroes est un groupe de Métal Electro, né en 2010 à Perpignan. Le son de WKH prend sa source dans les années 1990 et 2000, terreau riche de fusions et d’expérimentations. Les textes oscillent entre critique du monde du travail et fêtes jusqu’au-boutistes, paradis artificiels et faux prophètes, tout ce qui fait notre vie.

Après une première vie avec une autre line-up, Hugues (guitare) et Fabien (guitare) décident de repartir à zéro et de se concentrer sur l’essentiel : la musique. En 2015 ils sont rejoint par Martial (clavier), Aurélien (basse), Galdric (chant) et Joël (batterie), mi 2017 Aurélien est remplacer par Pierre. Chacun sa place dans le groupe Hugues et Fabien a la composition, Galdric à l’écriture des textes, Martial s’occupe du visuel du groupe, pour Joël et Pierre c’est la technique. Grâce à cette nouvelle formation et son envie de partager, le groupe sort en Mars 2018 un clip “The One” annonciateur de l’album éponyme “Working Klass Heroes” le tout réalisé par leurs propres moyens et de supers amis qui ont rendu tout cela possible.

La sortie de l’album a été annoncé lors d’un concert magique au Vinochope le 31 Mars 2018 “Working Klass Heroes porte bien son nom, les membres du groupe sont les héros ouvriers de leur propre histoire musicale” - Priscilla Beauclair dans le travailleur catalan - 30/03/2018

Aujourd’hui WKH a envie d’exporter sa musique au quatre coins de la France, un deuxième album est en cours de composition et pourquoi pas un EP acoustique.

Parallel Minds - Metal - Marseille

Two minds working together as one, united by a shared passion, a common vision and the drive to make their dreams a reality. Vocalist Stéphane Fradet and guitarist Grégory Giraudo came together with the goal of creating an incredible heavy metal band; a band that would know no boundaries and accept no rules. Their band would combine the crisp, precision riffing of thrash metal with the soaring melodies and fleet-fingered solos of classic metal; it would marry musical muscle and aggression with a real depth of emotion and sit sincere ballads next to sprawling epics and surround them both with steel clad metal attacks. Conceived by two minds working together, each bringing an individual creativity to the mix, the name of their band was obvious...Parallel Minds.

Recruiting ex-Dagoba drummer Franky Costanza to assist them, Stéphane and Grégory set about recording the first Parallel Minds album, Headlong Disaster, which would be released in the spring of 2015. Headlong Disaster sent shockwaves through the scene, with Metal Gods TV declaring it a “spectacular roller coaster ride of awesome music.” An EP, Unplugged Disaster and a single, Spanish Disaster, followed that same year and then Parallel Minds stepped back from the spotlight to begin writing for their second album. Antoine Moutet was recruited on bass duties and Franky Costanza passed on the drumsticks to one of his most talented students, Eric Manella. With their new dedicated team in place Parallel Minds entered the studio...

They emerged with their second full length album, the stunning Every Hour Wounds...The Last One Kills. This new album brings all the elements that Stéphane and Grégory first envisaged for Parallel Minds together in spectacular fashion – all the power and passion, the exquisitely executed musicianship, the thrills and adrenaline, the potent emotion...everything that makes metal great! When Pitch Black Records heard these songs they immediately offered Parallel Minds a deal and now, on April 5th Every Hour Wounds...The Last One Kills will be unleashed on both CD and digital formats. The epic grandeur of album centre piece ‘Syria’ features guest vocals from Kobi Farhi (Orphaned Land) and Yossi Sassi (Yossi Sassi Band and ex-Orphaned Land) and one of two bonus tracks on the CD edition of the album is an immaculate cover of the Savatage classic, ‘Tonight He Grins Again’.

If you love metal, if its essence lives in your heart and soul, then Parallel Minds are the band for you and Every Hour Wounds... is an album you need to hear!
