Biography:
The Prowlers were born in Rome ( Italy ) during winter 1996. As
almost every Band at the beginning of its activity, our Gigs where based
on playing Cover Songs. But after about one year of Live Shows all
around Italy, we started to write original music.
Each element of our Band participates actively to the writing and
arrangement of every song, that's why you will find a large variety of
ideas and melodical solutions even inside a single track!
Moreover, thanks to the wide musical background owned by all of us, our
songwriting is influenced by different styles, from Hard Rock to NWOBHM,
from Power Metal to Progressive.
In 1999 we recorded our first Demo CD.
The quality of this work was low due to a total "home-made"
production so, in December 2000, we decided to record a new CD into
professional Studios.
It has been titled "A Descent into the Maelstrom", taking
inspiration by the E.A. Poe novel, and sent to several Labels, Web-zines
and Magazines all around the World. The response have been more than
positive and we received some Recording Contract proposals, but we didn't
reach any agreement. So, one year later, we recorded another Demo CD
titled "Souls Thieves" and sent it only to Labels. After few
months we found an agreement with the Italian Label "Northwind
Records" and signed our first Recording Contract!
Our idea is that Heavy Metal is still having many things to say and our
purpose is to "spread the word" doing the best that we can!
