Stefano (Guitars-vocals) and Pierluigi (drums); after many line up changes LOST MOON became stable when Adolfo Calandro (bass) and Mauro Colloca (percussion) joined the band.The combo started working on their typical sound , a mix of heavy psychedelic stoner and hard tribal rhythms.In 1998 Lost Moon recorded the first demo called “First Breath” a self-produced work in which the sound of the band already shows its distinctive mark.

Line UP : Luca Martone (guitar & voice) ; Luigi Limongelli ( BAss) , Angelo Zampelli (Drums), Pablo Zollo (voice)

ll termine "Black Surface" evidenzia una visione estremamente negativa della società e di tutto ciò che ci circonda. Il progetto “Black Surface” nasce nell’inverno del 2009. La band è costituita da Limongelli Luigi (Bass) , Luca Martone (Guitar & Voice ) e Angelo Zampelli (Drums).
Il trio beneventano è fortemente influenzato da suoni e ritmiche che richiamano fortemente lo Stoner e il post Hardcore. Tuttavia le sonorità cercate dalla band tentano in maniera incisiva di ricreare una sonorità molto più ampia ed espansiva. La band ricrea un sound prettamente stoner dominaro da riff molto densi dominati da un tono estremamente cupo. La ricerca di suoni molto cupi porta il trio a comporre alcuni pezzi strumentali , due dei quali saranno poi inseriti nella demo registrata nell’inverno 2010. Gli altri 2 pezzi che completano la demo sono invece una chiara espressione di come la band sia fortemente amareggiata dalla società odierna.


       English Version

Black Surface emerges from the charming but tormented southern lands of Italy, from the town of Benevento.The band started its activity at the end of 2009. The line-up involves Luigi Limongelli on bass, Luca Martone on guitar & voice and Angelo Zampelli on drums.
You know that many Italian bands are greatly fascinated by sounds from stoner, doom, psychedelic rock and southern metal. Well, Black Surface enthusiastically follow the trend and they play a blend of stoner and heavy, southern metal dominated by dense, chugging riffage and mid-tempo rhythms.In spite of the great catchiness, Black Surface’s riff-dominated stoner-southern sounds have a gloomy undertone. These riffs and blows are not to worship weed or booze but they are mostly the vehicle for conveying a deeply pessimistic view of life.
The name they have chosen for their band, Black Surface, is the expression of the extremely negative view of society and of the environment surrounding these young guys.
The demo includes two instrumental tracks and two tracks where singer Luca Martone gives the best performances when he gets angry and spits his rage, like in the track “Living In This Time”.
The band is unsigned and looking for a label.
The guys are working on the follow-up of this demo, where I personally wouldn’t mind to hear the sounds made even dirtier than now and the vocals kept always in tension, even in the slower parts.
For Black Surface the trigger has worked fine, the engine has started …
