Dark Quarterer (Italian epic progressive metal)

Yeah, keep these bands coming Dave.

Since you sub-titled the thread Italian Progressive Metal ... I guess I'll post some of the new wave of stuff, and you can post the old.

I like both eras in Italian metal history.

Here are a few facts about Italian Metal:

1) It's better than most other metal out there!

2) The Italian metal scene is flooded with women, not just men! There are quite a few female "Italian" headbangers! I think that's awesome! I've always wanted the metal scene to include the chicks as well.

3) The Italians play with more 'passion'. It's part of their genetic makeup. This comes out in their music! New school, and old!



Check this song out off the new Secret Sphere if you don't believe me! This band RULES and is in my top 20 favorite bands of all time list!

BOSSMAN, thou hast not answered my DQ question on page 1 as of this time.


MB, I forgot to mention Cydonia, specificially the second album:





But remember: Italiano is third for me behind German and USA metal.

Holy shiznit! That Cydonia kicks some balls!!!

I need to add them to my list immediately! They kinda remind me of a more thrashy Secret Sphere!

Orion, did you listen to each of those Secret Sphere songs?

Whoops, didn't read your question before, haha. Anyway, yeah, that's just a snippet. The rest of the album is just as good, or maybe even better. I chose that one for the simple reason that it's an uptempo song, and the most straightforward song on the album. The second video I posted (the live song) is off of the first album too.

Some more good stuff... Death SS frontman Steve Sylvester (hence the SS in the name... got nothing to do with nazis) with his old bandmate Paul Chain doing a solo project:
