His story:

He started to go to drumming lessons yet when he was 10, and formed his own first band with his cousin yet
at 12: IVORY GATES, then after renamed in LOST DIMENSION, with whom he purposes Power-Metal covers.
He starts seriously touring many clubs only once joined BLACK MAGIC, a SLAYER tribute-band, formed in 2001,
again from a project with his cousin.
At the same time he joins the tecno-trash project named EXTINCTION, a promo will be released in few months.
In 2003 he's contacted by NECROART, a melodic-death band yet on the road since some years, with them,
he records a promo and a full-lenght in 2005, titled "The opium visions".
In the meanwhile he joins other 3 cover-bands, with a more commercial style: POINTBREAK, THE ROCKS
and ZERO (a SMASHING PUMPKINS tribute-band).
Finally, in the summer of 2006, basically to have fun, he forms a Norway BlackMetal cover-band, in which
he's involved also in the role of lead-singer.
Now, that the high-school is over, after beeing around, up and down, with our MEGADETH tribute-band, he has
decided to dedicate himself fulltime on learning drums and music, hoping to become a professional tour-player.
Actually he plays in many bands, but AXTRA will occupy always a very special place in his heart...
