REAL DEAL

About Me


In the summer of 1988 different people from different countries (Italy, Switzerland, UK) joined their forces and founded a band who was to become a seminal name for hardcore music in Europe: REAL DEAL. The band core was formed by Cesare and Giulio, both coming from one of the most famous and respected Italian HC band the 80’s, CRASH BOX.
After the release of a demo tape at the beginning of 1989 and a couple of songs included in AVALANCHE2, a compilation of emerging Swiss bands, they were offered by Far Out Records the chance to record their first CD in 1991 The record received raving reviews in the main fanzines of those times like Maximumrock&roll, Zap!, Blast, Rumore and many others.
REAL DEAL played headlining shows all over continental Europe and supported other bands like Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags, Neurosis, Young Gods.
The band split up in 1993, but the members kept on playing in various projects such as ERODE (legendary left-winged Italian punk band) and MATAMACHETE (industrial electro-punk Swiss project), just to name a few.
Now REAL DEAL is back and we are busy with the recording of the new cd “BORN HOSTILE”. A modern mixing of true hardcore, punk and crusty rhythmic and a gloomy and angry vision of the world we’re living in.
A crossing between Cro-Mags and Black Flag that you can’t miss, if you still believe in hardcore music as an expression of DIY spirit and commitment.
P.S.: we do not want to waste our time making friends with exhibitionistic people or bloody bigots and of course we are not looking for romance, so please add us ONLY if you are interested in our MUSIC and HC/PUNK/DIY culture...because this is the REAL DEAL.
