About Me
OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY
Formed in 1996 and oriented from the beginning to the dark side of music GF93 produced 3 albums, that can easily represent the band's history and evolution.
The band recorded the first album "Beaten" after one year (1997) of production with Paolo Favati (Einsturzende Neubauten, Pankow, Dive and more).
The sound in the band's very first experience was totally influenced by the industrial metal movement, due to the production of P.F. and the background of the musicians featured in the project. Carlo Bellotti was singer and leader of the black metal cult band Necromass, and Paolo Favati was a significant influence in the European Electro-Industrial scene. A considerable fanbase was builded in Italy with the good album's sales, and promotion but the band was looking for more: the European market.After a short period of silence (due to the recording of some new songs) GF93 signed on Copro Records/Plastic Head distribution , for the second album.The band started writing the songs with the Hardcore producer Dave Chang. In fact the second album recorded and produced in 1999 changed the band's future. More melodic songs made GF93 a well known band, respected across the whole Europe. After this important second release GF93 reached many important goals.
-Toured Italy with Earthtone9, UK with Misery Loves Company, again UK on headliner tour,
-Supported NOFX, Wasp, Ultraviolence, Swamp Terrorists and many more,
-Produced a Video for the song "Sleepless",
-Appeared on national and foreign Rock TV channels,
-Headlined the famous Beach Bum festival's Tent Stage,
-Appeared on many magazines, cd compilations, webstites....After the band came back from the last UK tour a lot of things changed. 3 of the members left the band, giving space to a new drummer: KOREA, new
bass player Fabba and Vittorio on guitars. The sound changed with the line up. The new album "Convulse all-star" saw the light in October 2002 produced
by Alessandro Paolucci and Martin Barbour out on Copro Records again. As soon as the album was released( with worldwide distribution by Plastic Head) the band started working on the new Video that is still broadcasted on MTV, Rock TV, Viva and many more foreign channels.
Patrik Wiren of Misery Loves Company is an important guest in the song Eight Years.
The band also appeared on PRP, Shoutweb, Rock TV, Rock FM, Rocksound, Channel Sky, MTV,TMC2, Matchmusic and many more. This great success of "Convulse all-star will also generate the remix version that will be out in the spring on Mechanism Records. An unreleased remix version of Eight Years produced by SyncProdz is ready. This track will be featured in the 4th album.A long period of hard work and isolation made the band find the real musical direction and a completely personal sound and style.
This has been a very long research, and the combo truly found its own style.
The new Album is out now titled OSR, produced by Alessandro Paolucci, Kurt Ballou (converge) and Martin Barbour.The band will start the live promotion in UK (November), Italy (November-December) and Germany (Jan.). real editor best profile tools i class=text
