Azraël

It all started with a note pinned up in the record shops between Genoa and Recco. Ale Arbocò was hunting for musicians on the same wavelength, and by 1989 Azrael had taken shape in Rapallo - fuelled by sweat-drenched gigs, a battered Hughes & Kettner PA and the uncut DIY spirit of the early-'90s underground. We cut our teeth on unhinged original sets and thunderous covers of Iron Maiden, Metallica and Crimson Glory, before slipping into a long hiatus at the end of 1994.
Decades on, we're grateful - and genuinely excited - to be making music together again.
With a renewed spirit and a new line-up anchored by founding member Andy Lijoi on guitars, we're crafting the next chapter of our sound. The focus right now is our forthcoming album: a record we hope will honour where we came from whilst saying something true about where we are now.
