About Me

In late spring of 2003, after a Faster Pussycat's gig in Milan, Iggy, Mez and Manny, realized it was time to go back to their roots. The guys were previously bandmates in a band called Carrion ('92-'97) taking their first steps into the Italian rock scene, playing across stages in central Italy. In 1995 they released their first six track demo "Wake up security channel". Ten years later, their hunger for rock was fed again by forming the band Radiovipers.

After six months of rehearsals, a recording session began in the autumn of 2004. In may 2005 their first cd "The Morning Sunburst" was ready. A female bass player named Sarah joined the band. The following months the Radiovipers spent their time promoting the cd at live gigs and sharing the stage with the hottest Italian rock bands.
In November 2005 the song, Pusher, was included on the Perris Records compilation, Hollywood Hairspray Vol. 5. November 30th 2005 Radiovipers signed a two album deal with New York’s Versailles Records. The album "The morning sunburst" was released April 26th 2006 in USA, CANADA (Big Daddy Music distribution) and later in the UK, FRANCE and JAPAN, getting very good reviews from magazines and webzines, and airplay on many radio stations all over the world. Moreover they were included in three tribute cds (Sammy Hagar, Guns 'n Roses and Motley Crue) published by the same label. Meanwhile, the band supported acts such as Vain, Gemini Five, Vains of Jenna, Dogs D’amour and Adam Bomb and was invited as a special guest to the Italian Kiss Expo in Rome.
In May 2006, a talented bass player named Ray L. Colucci, replaced Sarah. One Month later the drummer quit the band. Manny and Mez, spent the entire period of hiatus writing new songs for the 2nd album. After a couple of months of auditions, in September 2006, the band recruited, Tosty, the new drummer and started rehearsing and planning tour dates for the year coming.
