Biography:

Formed back in 2000, PATHOSRAY is one of the best kept secrets of the Italian metal scene. Originally going by the name N.D.E, the band, formed by drummer Ivan Moni Bidin, guitarist Luca Luison and vocalist Marco Sandron, established their own sound as a mixture of heavy metal, progressive metal and 70's style symphonic prog-rock.

In 2001 the band recorded its first demo, "Strange Kind Of Energies" - released in 2002 under the new band name PATHOSRAY.

By 2006 the band had established their line-up with bass player Fabio D'Amore and keyboardist Gianpaolo Rinaldi.

In 2006 they started to record their first full-length album, simply titled "Pathosray".

Once the album was completed, the band (now with new guitarist Alessio Velliscig) sent the disc to Danish based Intromental Management and once the awesome music on the album reached Denmark, a deal was soon in place.

The album was in USA on October 23rd 2007, Canada and Europe on October 26th and followed a few months later in Japan (through Marquee/Avalon).

In support of the release, PATHOSRAY played a few select shows around Italy and in September 2008 they went to USA to perform for the first time in front of an enthusiastic ProgPower Festival crowd. 2 weeks later they played at ProgPower Europe in Holland with just as good a response.

The rest of 2008 was spent on writing and recording the new album, "Sunless Skies"which was mixed and mastered in Sweden by Johan Ornborg and Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios (Symphony X, Hammerfall, Opeth, Katatonia and more). The release was in spring 2009.

A new (and 3rd) album is in progress.
