BIO :
Tothem is considered one of the most talented and promising bands of the Italian melodic metal panorama. After the release of an Ep (Tothem), in 2003 the band breaks up and only in 2010 Black Cyril, the guitar player, and Roslen, the vocalist, decide to reform Tothem with the entry of three new elements: Leo, on the bass guitar, the Joker, on drums, and Marco, on keyboards. During the years they have played at the best clubs of Rome such as the Qube, Alpheus, Ex-Magazzini, Coetus, Black Out, Jailbreak and so on. Then they took part in the Emergenza Rock competitions, reaching the final, and in the Live Magic Contest, been set at Alpheus, reaching the semifinals. They were lately placed second at the “We a.r.e. the festival” contest among more than 100 bands, while Roslen was awarded as the best female singer. Up to now they have recorded two demos (Automatisma and Pray) and two Eps (Tothem in 2003 and Osaka Bed & Breakfast released in 2010 in limited edition).
This latest Ep got a great critical success and audience approval (300 copies gone sold out, enhanced by the chance of the free download of the songs), especially among foreign listeners and the band’s popularity is constantly growing. Rescue, second track from the Osaka B&B album, became part of the “World of Glass” and “You can’t shake me – A little help for Japan” compilations. Cross the line entered in the “Metal around the world” compilation and Light of Soul in "Aiutiamo l'Emilia".
At the moment the band is working on their debut album that will be released in October 2012. The band played in Bucharest (RO) and Gravesend (UK) as the firsts dates of the promotional tour.
