The story of The LoveCrave was born amongst the metropolitan ashes of the big city, Milan united with the gothic and silent atmosphere of Venice.
The band is formed of two experienced rock musicians from Milan and two old, good friends of Venice origin that moved to Milan to make music.
The mix of sounds is an explosive magic potion and The LoveCrave realized it right away when they played together for the first time.
The experience and the great artistic discharge of every component of the band ooze like an evil Venice fog that covers your heart at the first listen. Experimentation and sound research have been fundamental, with no limits and with a never satisfied attitude, working during the night and putting every extra cent on the work.
Tank Palamara, guitarist and producer of The LoveCrave, has 10 years of tours and rock productions under his belt, decides that it’s time to get serious and the engine begins to run.
Francesca Chiara, Venetian rock act of the Italian scene splits from Sony Music Italy and with her melodies and with her acid voice enchants The LoveCrave’s atmospheres. She takes care of all the graphics, curing every detail and she invents Rain, her 3D alter ego. She also writes a fiction story, "The angel and the rain", that pieces all the songs together and that will be found in the cd booklet.
Iakk plays drums with Tank Palamara and Francesca Chiara for the past 5 years and he takes care of the live sets and organizes rehearsals.
Simon Dredo, Francesca’s best friend from high school, coming from a tour in England is the last to join the band as bass player in March 2005.
Tank and Francesca, co-writers for many years, write about 15 songs in less than a month and that’s how a live metal band becomes a serious project aiming to the music industry.
What The LoveCrave were looking for during the recordings was a rough, elegant and new sound at the same time, taking inspiration also from Iron Maiden and eighties sound to the Depeche Mode, curing every detail but trying to leave that instinctive and rough edge untouched. They create in their mind a sort of Blade Runner world and try to put music in it.
In March 06 they sign with german record label RepoRecords that realeases The LoveCrave’s first album, "The Angel And The Rain".
In May 06 the band signs with WOD (Wings Of Destiny), one of the biggest gothic/metal booking agencies in Europe.
In June 06 the mastering of the album is done by Alex Klier in Munich (LXK Studios).
In August 06 the band leaves for a German tour with The Birthday Massacre, a famous canadian band.
October 30th 06 “The Angel And The Rain†is released in Europe.
In November the band flies to Paris for a promo day.
The German press totally supports The LoveCrave with highlights and stories for months in a row. Also Italy seems crazy for the band and all the main metal/gothic magazines include long articles and great reviews speaking of the band as a new goth revelation.
English radio TotalRock, one of the biggest in the UK, discovers The LoveCrave and supports them all the way giving them the chance to play in London in Jenuary 07 at the famous venue Camden Underworld.
The gig is promoted by the radio and the day before the show, The LoveCrave record in London 4 unplugged tracks at the Sonic Studio of TotalRock.
The promotion work in Germany is great so The LoveCrave get a spot in the famous WGT Festival of Leipzig, one of the biggest gothic festivals in Europe. They will play there at the end of May 07.
As the agency works on more gigs, the band began to work on the new album…
About The LoveCrave USA's leader...
My name is Kiera and I live in New Jersey. I discovered The LoveCrave on July 1st, 2007 and fell in love with them as soon as I first heard Vampires. (I only know the date because Tank had sent a message to my other street team page, and that's how I found the band.) They remind me of the Finnish band HIM, and that could be why I love them!
I am currently the leader of the NJ section of the Tattooed Millionaires street team, so I am familiar with and have experience in this area. I love street teaming and promoting bands. It gives me a chance to create more fans and introducing a lot of people to new music. I also love going to concerts and I ty to go to as many as I can. If you have any questions for me, you can email me at [email protected].
