Since 1988 guitarist and vocalist.
I was born in Soncino, an ancient village in Northern Italy on June the 20th 1973. Since the childhood, I was interested in playing musical instruments, but until the age of 13 I didn't begin to play any., My music teacher at the middle school was used to play:”The final countdown” from the band “Europe” on the accordion. I really like that song. My father is an accordionist, so I asked him to teach me how to play it. I practised the accordion for about two years, learning some kind of waltz, too. In the meantime some of my peers begun listening to metal bands. A couple of them were living closer and listening at extreme volume their favourite songs. I got interested and went to my neighbours asking to borrow a music-cassette. I chose: “The number of the Beast” by Iron Maiden and “Ride the lightning” of Metallica. I loved that music immediately, choosing to leave the accordion to play the guitar. Firstly I bought a classical guitar and learned the basic techniques within a method created for the Commodore 64. At the age of 17, I bought my first electric guitar, a very used Kaway Aquarius Custom. It was impossible to find out musicians in my surroundings to play metal, so I've joined some cover bands. With the “Nessuno” I played my first gig. Afterwards, I recorded my first demo tape, helped by a classmate who created drums and bass through his Commodore AMIGA. In that age, there were just a few ways of promotion. In late 1993 I formed the band Castigo youtu.be/cBBhRG3cpkg . We recorded a 3 tracks demo tape, but after a quarrel, I quitted the band. Then I joined the death metal band “Aphelion” to play this gig youtu.be/QYvKdm8DlDs . After a couple of years and some gigs the band decided to change his musical style and I disagreed ... So I tried to play a different kind of music, but I felt it more challenging and less satisfactory. In the middle of 1999 I began with my home recording solo project. It has been quite a disaster. So in 2003, I retired. I turned back to the classical guitar and dedicated myself to it completely, selling part of my electric instrumentation. Five years later I changed my mind again, but I didn't want to make the same previous mistakes. Registering on the Facebook network I got in touch with old friends, members of the “Aphelion” band. Talking with them about my desire to record again some tracks I was surprised to understand they wished to help me...and that's it.

Lyrics
Songwriters: Jeffery John Hanneman / Tomas Enrique Araya War Ensemble lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group Propaganda death ensemble Burial to be Corpses rotting through the night In blood laced misery Scorched earth the policy The reason for the singe The pendulum it shaves the blade The strafing air blood raid infiltration push reserves Encircle the front lines Supreme art of strategy Playing on the minds Bombard till submission Take all to their graves Indication of triumph The number that are dead Sport the war, war support The sport is war, total war When victory's a massacre The final swing is not a drill It's how many people I can kill Be dead friend from above When darkness falls Descend into my sights Your fallen walls Spearhead break through the lines Flanked all around Soldiers of attrition Forward their ground Regime prophetic age Old in its time Flowing veins run on through Deep in the Rhine Center of the web All battles scored What is our war crimes (Era forever more...war) Propaganda war ensemble Burial to be Bones shining in the night In blood laced misery Campaign of elimination Twisted psychology When victory is to survive And death is defeat Sport the war, war support The sport is total war When victory's a massacre When victory is survival When this end is a slaughter The final swing is not a drill It's how many people I can kill
