			Album Band

QUANTITY ITEM DESCRIPTION PRICE SUBTOTAL STEEL CITY - Now Its Time The band was founded in 2010 under the name of Metal Federal Reserve and was initially composed of four musicians, Andrea Brambilla (bass guitar), Alessandro Cannatelli (guitar), Gianmario Oliveri (drum) and Simone Picco (vocals). How easily guessed from the moniker, the main influences of the band can be found in hard rock and heavy metal, therefore all the songs featured an energetic hard&heavy sung in Italian. However, the composition phase gave rise to several disagreements, especially about the musical genre that in some cases was too "nostalgic": this was the turning point for the band. A few months later, the musician Samuel Cremonesi (guitar) joined the band. The new guitar fit easily in with the other members and a nice feeling among them was reached. Soon he realized, like the rest of the band had already ascertained, that the potentiality of the band couldn''t be delimited by a genre so markedly tied to the past. In 2010, by mutual agreement, the band broke up for a period of "reflection". Andrea Brambilla and Alessandro Cannatelli, for years engaged in the project and aware of the potentiality of the band, organized a meeting with Simone Picco and Samuel Cremonesi. After a few months and the arrival of new drummer Francesco Valente, the new band Steel City was born. With Francesco joining the project, the band could get a renovated moral enthusiasm to create new songs, after some months spent discussing, in a mood not very suitable to compose. Soon, it became clear that the band had that "extra something" that allowed it to write modern songs, without forgetting the past. In fact, the band''s goal is to be inspired by the 90''s sound, contextualizing its harmony today. The number of live shows began to grow exponentially and so the complicity among the members of the new formation. At the end of 2011 the artistic differences pushed the lead singer, Simone Picco, into leaving the band; after a few weeks of testing and experimenting new songs sung in English, Steel City finally consolidated their long-awaited sound. A short time later, the band organized a rehearsal with Fabio Riccio, a crossover/new metal singer: that evening exceeded all expectations. In a short time the lyrics and the vocal lines were arranged and the band performed in several high-impact live shows, extremely appreciated by the audience. In the summer of 2012, the EP "Welcome to Steel City", which includes the first 6 works of the band, is published. In late summer, the band got in contact with logic(il)logic, a record label with which Steel City signed a contract and recorded the debut album "Now It''s Time". Tracklist: 01. Intro 02.
