Italy's ENEMYNSIDE Call It A Day; Guitarist Matteo Bellezza To Focus On NEW BABYLON Project
October 2, 2014, 10 years ago
Guitarist Matteo Bellezza checks in to announce the demise of Rome, Italy-based rock/metal act, Enemynside:
"Maybe it’s time to tell what happened after the departure of singer Francesco “Frallo” Cremisini last year. I (Matt) was the only member left in the band because Francesco De Honestis (the other guitar player) left the band as well, and drummer Danilo Menna has been involved in many other projects.The band officially went on hiatus, but I knew there would be no more Enemynside. The band was something Frallo and I worked on since 1998. We grew up both personally and musically with Enemynside, we released three full lengths (the last one Whatever Comes with Richie Kotzen as very special guest on it), played live both in Italy and abroad. I’m proud of everything we have done and it would be senseless to me keeping the band alive with a new singer.
Last but not least I felt the need to play something different now, I feel myself more into hard rock and that’s why I focused on my other band, New Babylon. We have just released the new single titled “My New Baby” which you can download on iTunes."
The single is also available for streaming via Bandcamp (listen below), and on Spotify and Pandora soon.
