Marte in Ariete

Italy-based Post-Punk / New Wave / Coldwave band came together around 1984 when Osvaldo Lanata at the time singer with Nadja, started writing songs by himself . He recruited some other former members of Nadja, Carlo Nasti on bass and Bruno Ianiello sax, and with them soon joined the friends Lorenzo Acanfora and Franco Zocco . Working together the band quickly developed a sound , typical of the Italian new wave 80's generation where cold synth melodies stand out to contrast the dramatic italian lyrics singing The band soon led to the creation of self-produced demo tape K7 on 1985 and than the two tracks for the compilation C.O.D.E.. They played live for a single concert in which Fabio Giannini participated as guitarist and Anna Zocco as vocalist.

He continued to write music for the Mellonta Tauta project with artist poet Angelo Tonelli Read more on Last.fm.
