We are 6th Counted Murder, a Metal band Milan (Italy) founded in late 2011. All of us have been active on the italian metal scene for years, and now we’re finally ready to ‘commit new crimes’.

We write our own material, which is a unique hybrid of the Metal styles we like best, individually and as a band. Our influences range from Heavy Classic to Death/Thrash Metal with some Progressive hints. The band’s sound varies a lot, from the typical Gothenburg Sound of Dark Tranquility, In Flames and At the Gates, to the American Thrash of Megadeth and Testament. Passing from Death’s characteristic sound of ‘Individual Thought Patterns’ and ‘Symbolic’ up to those that refer to the Classic Metal from Iron Maiden.

Once we got established in our exclusive headquarters , called ‘Basement Studios’, we set up a small recording studio and spent more than a full year composing, practicing and improving our skills. We put everything we had into making our first full-lenght album, the eponymously titled ‘6TH COUNTED MURDER’, which was released on Halloween 2013.

The album was self-produced and recorded, while the mixing and mastering were done at MassiveArts Studios in Milan. The release of the album was followed by a live and press promotion in 2013/2014.
Despite good reviews and the significant growth of our fan base, in late 2014, the band decided to part ways with front man Luca, aka ‘Mr.Butcher’.
Unfortunately his spot would remain vacant for 18 long months, during which we devoted ourselves totally to the composition of new material.

It is February. 29th - 2016 when Simone Dalamar Paga becomes the new official screamer of the band. 6th Counted Murder, back to full strenght, can finally resume live activity and the writing process of the new album.

In May 2018, during the recording sessions in the 'Basement Studios', the band signed for Sliptrick Records.
On September, 22nd - 2018 was released the new single ‘Scent Of Despair’, extract from the new up-coming album.

On February, 8th - 2019 the second full-lenght 'INDIVIDUAL' is released, produced at Domination Studio with mixing and mastering entrusted to Simone Mularoni.

(FEBRUARY 2019) The Murderer is still on its way...
