Biography

Band from Perugia (Italy) formed in 2000, Strider is a band that tries, release after release, to find an original way to mix extreme metal, classic and modern metal, along with unique melodies. The lyrics belong for its most part to the horror/sci-fi category, along with some personal and introspective elements. The artists and bands that could serve as reference points are Arch Enemy, Devin Townsend, Soilwork, Children of Bodom, and Blind Guardian. The band had across his history many gigs, took part to festivals, and a mini tour in the eastern Europe (Slovakia), along with good placements (and a first prize) in various local music competitions; the songs have been airplayed in italian and foreign radios, and the band has shared the stage or joined festivals with many important bands such as Blaze, Eldritch, Secret Sphere, Node, Forgotten Silence, Castaway, Rain, Infernal Poetry, Lunarsea, Srl, Subliminal Crusher, and Exawatt, among others.
