The IMPELLITTERI band create a mind blowing, highly energetic, and
thrilling new musical adventure with “THE NATURE OF THE BEAST”. The band is on fire with their musical acrobatics,
addictive riffs, shredding guitar solos, speed metal drumming, bad ass bass
playing, and vocals reminiscent of DIO, Dickinson, Pavarotti, and Halford in
their prime, all embedded in great songs!
With so many great metal bands fading away into the sunset IMPELLITTERI
continue to carry the torch for guitar driven heavy metal that feature powerful
operatic vocals, anthem style choruses, and brilliant musicianship. Chris
Impellitteri’s guitar playing
is majestic. His fretboard wizardry is astonishing, fierce, and influential.
All the while Rob Rocks vocal performance is sensational and proves he is one
of the most versatile vocalists in metal today. The rhythm section featuring
the monstrous bass playing from James Pulli and the bands mind boggling
drumming and percussion team create a musical groove that is addictive!
On “The Nature of the
Beast” IMPELLITTERI shine on songs like the
Dr. Jekyll And Mr.Hyde inspired original song “Do You Think I’m Mad” ; the Maiden
influenced “Run For Your Life” ; the highly energetic remake of Black Sabbath’s “Symptoms of the Universe” ; the lunacy of “Gates of Hell” , the addictive riff of “ Hypocrisy”, and the speed
metal cover of “Phantom of The
Opera” . There are 10 new original songs and
two covers on this album that take the listener on a musical adventure.
IMPELLITTERI recorded THE NATURE OF THE BEAST in Los Angeles, California
with Legendary engineer/ producer Mike Plotnikoff (Van Halen, Aerosmith, In
Flames), Mix engineer Greg Reely ( Overkill, Fear Factory, IMPELLITTERI ) and
engineers Jun Murakawa and Sean Shannon.
Like their childhood musical heroes including, Vivaldi, Iron Maiden, Queen,
Black Sabbath, Al DiMeola, Paco de Lucia, John McLaughlin,Pavarotti,
IMPELLITTERI strive for greatness —creating, performing, and recording this new music with
all four band members contributing equally. The band recorded this new record
in a grand fashion using major studios with large tracking rooms and vintage
Analog equipment to capture the bands live musical energy and performance!
The band members including guitarist Chris Impellitteri, Vocalist Rob Rock,
Bassist James Pulli, and drummers / percussionists Jon Dette and Phil T worked
tirelessly , writing, rehearsing, and performing in and out of the studio for
over a year to create this new record!
We look forward to seeing IMPELLITTERI bring THE NATURE OF THE BEAST tour
to there fans around the world as the band is known for being a great live act
for those lucky enough to have seen them so far!
