Biography.
In 1996, the industrialized, Northern
Italy-situated city of Brescia was the perfect place for
Tragodia to be born and for their music to start being
shaped. Ten years have past since then. Ten years of truly
dedicated musical research across the domain(s) of gloomy
yet melodic metal.
After releasing in 1998 a critical-acclaimed demo-tape,
"Dramas in splendent realms", which the band tried to
achieve a fresh balance between raw doom-death roots and
bitter gothic influences with, in 2001-2002 Tragodia entered
the studio again in order to record their self-produced "All
our miseries" mini-CD, a pompous opus of symphonic gothic
metal. Both the demo-tape and the mini-CD earned the band
awards from various metal magazines, with "All our miseries"
being awarded as top-demo of the month by Italian Grind Zone
(like the Dramas in splendent realms demo-tape) and French
Metallian magazines. Many gigs (including a live appearance
in Greece!) followed both releases.
2007 - Tragodia are proud to announce that the producing of
their first full-lenght album, consisting of 9 gems of
melodic yet powerful, catchy and intense metal, mastered at
the world famous Finnvox Studios by Mika Jussila, is
completed. The album, entitled "The Promethean Legacy", will
be released on Oct 1, 2007 by Dark Balance Records (The Netherlands).
