Dear community of ProgArchives, I'd like to introduce a new band: Dropshard. Dropshard is a new progressive-rock band from Italy. They born in september 2007 with Sebastiano Benatti (guitar), Alex Stucchi (bass), Tommaso Mangione (drums) who came from another rock-based project, Antares. These are their links: http://www.dropshard.net" rel="nofollow - http://www.dropshard.net http://www.myspace.com/dropshard" rel="nofollow - http://www.myspace.com/dropshard The lineup: Enrico Scanu: Lead vocals, Flute. Sebastiano Benatti: Guitar, back-vocals Marco Zago: Keyboards, Synth Alex Stucchi: Bass, back-vocals Tommaso Mangione: Drums Two self-home-recorded demos released since 2008: DSI (2008), DSII (2009 - 2010). The first one without lead singer (Alex on vocals), the second one with the current singer (Enrico). Now the band is writing their first CD, a concept album about "human's research". It will be probably released at the end of 2010. The entire demos are downloadable from these links: DSI MP3: http://www.dropshard.net/Samples/DropshardDSImp3.zip" rel="nofollow - http://www.dropshard.net/samples/DropshardDSImp3.zip DSI FLAC: http://www.dropshard.net/Samples/DropshardDSImp3.zip" rel="nofollow - http://www.dropshard.net/samples/DropshardDSIFLAC.zip DSII MP3: http://www.dropshard.net/samples/DropshardDSII2010mp3.zip" rel="nofollow - DSI FLAC: http://www.dropshard.net/samples/DropshardDSII2010mp3.zip" rel="nofollow - Hope you'll like them.

Hello Alex, welcome to Progarchives! Thanks for your terrific songs ... now checked your MySpace samples and been amazed. Thick and graceful but a bit depressive and melancholic machinegun shots ... great!  ------------- http://www.facebook.com/damoxt7942" rel="nofollow">

| So whatever happened to them? I found them on Aural Moon. I like. Very... I'd have to hear more before I can judge. Did they ever get signed? |
