Biography ArseA, formed in 2006. The members of ArseA, who had all come to the band following various experiences with other groups, immediately decided to begin writing their own songs. The first personal successes, arriving in September 2007 with the participation of the band at theMusic Village, an event that allows a select band throughout Italy to spend seven days incontact with those that are the reality of Italian music today. In 2007, guitarist Simone was forced to leave the group for work reasons and, after a month of searching, he was replaced by Alessio Di Clementi. In July 2008, ArseA was chosen from among over 300 Italian bands to represent Italy at one of the biggest metal festivals in Europe, METALCAMP, held in Tolmin, Slovenia. Between September and December 2008, the band played close to Rome at the concert of Brutal Truth + Cripple Bastard, and performed abroad again, this time in Budapest, at Nu Metal Community Vol. 2 where they were very well-received. 2009 got off to a good start, with two great shows at the Palarockness in Genzano di Roma and Sonar in Colle Val d'Elsa, as support band to O.D. SAXON. Three months after, the band finally found the long-awaited last member of its line-up, Ivan Fusco who, on keyboards and synth, added the final element to the band’s already tight sound.
