Biography


Incipit:

The band has been created in 1993 by Nicola Bianchi with the aim to create an uncompromising weapon melting together everything’s Extreme in his personal idea of music. Year by year a strong coherence and firm will gave to this damned creature a respected name being considered the first violent act moving from Italy and one of the most killer acts into the Underground scene.
During 18 years a lot of different musicians took part (lees or more)... to this project headed by Nicola who never accepted neither compromises nor different influences to his way to play music. “Coherence and Underground spirit ahead! this is my mark!”.
