Ace of Hearts started to take shape in Alessandria (Italy) in in 2004 when Antonio Agate and Andrea Buratto decided to join forces to create a band with a sound that would combine dark aggressive metal with beautiful classic arrangements and explosive melodies. Antonio and Andrea decided to invite a fellow band mate, Federico Pennazzato (from Secret Sphere), whilst Gianmaria Saddi was given the role of lead guitarist. Together they started writing the material for Ace of Hearts’ debut work. Whilst working on the tracks, the band started looking for a singer. This proved to be a tough task as the singer they were searching for required great versatility and uniqueness. Finally, after four months, the band made contact with a talented singer from London, Johnny Icon. With Antonio’s overwhelming keyboards, the explosive, yet touching, guitar playing of Gianmaria, the power of both Andrea’s bass guitar lines and Federico’s drums plus the incredible voice of Johnny Icon, Ace of Hearts’ sound can remind the listener of bands like Metallica, Nightwish or HIM. Confused? Then all you’ve got to do is to listen to the record!!!
