This is a cool band, easy to hear the 70's influence on these guys. They have a cool sound, though I would like to hear them with better quality recordings, the singing sticks out too much and is a little too bright (and slightly off pitch-wise). Musically though these guys are on their way. I especially like the track Staticamente Nulla. Cool stuff.
note: only demos out.
Bio: The first Semeion line-up starts its tangled adventure with the name
“N-euro” in 2004 in the city of Bologna(Italy).The band was formed by
guitar, bass and drums to whom ,in the last period of the same year,
was added the voice. The musicians came from several kinds of
experinces, anyhow all having reference to 70’s rock and progressive
rock., but the sound was still influenced by the last generation of ’90
crossover rock style, especially the italian one. Moreover two of
them(singer and guitar player) attended DAMS musical university and
brought inside the project some elements from dams innovative musical
mentality.
In may 2005 arrived a new bass player and the group became steady:
Sergio Atzori(guitar), Davide Pasimeni(voice), Alessandro
Vocino(drums), Marco Margarito(bass).
The change in the rhythmic session will lead the sound of the
arragements into a “rock” properly direction, without losing the
“psychotic” progressive vocation..
To the latter are added the italian rigorously lirycs composed by the
singer, who’s very passionate in any kind of “bukowskian” literature.

Staticamente Nulla is a nice stylistic change from the first one there... but not really all that prog. I think a exception rather than the rule based on the 3rd one playing now...Tempesta.
can see where this is going.. I'd send this to David and Rico and let them hash it out when official.
