Why should they be added: Progressive is really a life reason for these guys. They love experimenting and spending hours on on the smallest detail in every song, they are not afraid of tempo changes, signature changes, genre changing, during any track. Remembering to remain musical, in the process. They are literally grown up with the top of the 70s prog (King Crimson, Genesis, Area, PFM, Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, Gentle Giant, Yes), fusion (Chick Corea, Allan Holdsworth, Tribal Tech, Brand X), technical death metal (Cynic, Death, Pestilence, Atheist, Cannibal Corpse) and modern technical metal (Intervals, Animals as Leaders, Meshuggah, Special Providence, Dream Theater)
Bio: Watermill is an instrumental prog band from Rome, Italy, formed in 2019. They write and record stuff in their own studio in Ciampino, Rome. They like odd times, fusion, 70's prog, experimentation, and any form of metal. They are also nerds, really influenced by movies and videogames. Their first 5 tracks-EP, Origins, is a perfect example of the variety of their tastes, going from spacey ballads, to violent riffs, to fast metal solos, to melodic chilly parts.
Guitar: Danilo "HellGuitarPlayer" Congiu Bass: Giancarlo Agugliaro Drums: Gianluca Tozzi Previous drummer (Origins EP): Christian Agugliaro
All the keyboards, synths, and weird sounds you can hear: midi written by everyone in the band, using VSTs.

Thanks for the suggestion, but QuillBot tells me this biography is AI-written. If you could rewrite this in your own words, we'd greatly appreciate it and can begin evaluation.
Hope this isn't too frustrating; we've recently also had an insane racist Serbian dude impersonating musicians and suggesting their bands with AI bios, so these days we have to proceed with caution.

I understand why you might wanna cheap out on hiring a real artist for the album cover. But please, for the love of fuсk, at least have enough balls to admit to having used obvious AI slop! xd You're not fooling anyone. And making a fool out of yourself. |
Can you please not swear, especially here where a musician presented his music. Also no personal attacks if you please.

I appreciate it, I'll take you to the team. If you don't mind, I plan to fuse your first two paragraphs into the finished biography if you get accepted, as there's pertinent information that should be included.
