Davide Bruno, Jo Lombardo, Tony Zappa, Virgilio Ragazzi and Stefano “Ghigas” Calvagno formed the band in 1997 under the monicker of Metafora producing with Track Records Productions (TRP) a four track Ep called “Reazioni e Memorie”, featuring some amazing anthems like “Una Parte di Me”.

As many things in life changes, it was four years later (2001) that one of the founding members, keyboardist Davide Bruno decided to begin a new spiritual journey bringing him to change completely his life becoming a Priest. After this important decision, another one will be essential: Metafora decided to change their monicker as METATRONE from that moment on. The new band’s name means “God is since now and forever”, consequently the band begins to write power-prog metal songs deeply inspired by a Christian Catholic view of life and human being. It was in 2005 when they produced with the help of TRP music their first album called “La Mano Potente” soon followed by the english version called “The Powerful Hand” distributed by Scarlet Records in Europe and King Records in Asia.

After its release, the band begins to play often live in Italy and around the world as well, playing at festivals like Elements of Rock twice, Tumbalong Park and World Youth Day in Australia just to name a few.

As many time happens, they toured a lot but immediately after they began to write new songs which bring them to a new and highest musical and lyrical level, songs were more influenced by prog but powerful at the same time. Most of that songs will be released on their third studio album, “Paradigma”. The new stunning 13 tracks album was produced by the band and TRP Music, officially released on 25 december 2010: the album features songs sang in english, italian, latin and spanish with some interesting growling vocal choruses performed by priest Davide himself getting very good reviews on the most popular metal magazines like Metal Hammer Italy, Metal Maniac and many other on-line magazines.

On May 2012 the band released their first videoclip, “In Spe Resurrectionis” from “Paradigma” (winning also the David Award as best italian song at V Premios David) while on june 2013 the band released a single track called “Heavenly Field” written against the Zionist policy supporting Gaza population at the time featuring italian hip hop band One Crew as special guest on vocals.

The band now is working at the new album release with a different line up: Tony Zappa and Virgilio Ragazzi has been now replaced by Dino Fiorenza on bass (Billy Sheehan, Steve Vai, Paul Gilbert, John Macaluso) and Salvo “T-Metal” Grasso on drums (Hypersonic, DenieD).

In 2015 Metatrone entered in the studio to record their third full-length album “Eucharismetal”. In November “Latest News From Light” has been released as video (http://bit.ly/METATRONE_LatestNews) first anticipation from the new album, to be released MARCH 11TH, 2016 by ROCKSHOTS. Along the new album will be re-released new versions of “The Powerful Hand” (remastered) and “Paradigma” with bonus tracks

Not Afraid
Metatrone Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm walking along the city
I'm coming from the night
I feel I have a reason
When your sight
Is passing over me
Your hands trace my destiny
Your voice is calling me
The ending line of my dreams'

Fading slowly
As I think of you
Every time I see
Your eyes close to me
I feel fading all my tears
Before the day is gone
Another one has begun
In this eternity

Your love is all
I have to go on
And to say I'm not afraid
I pray these days will last
Forever
And forever not afraid
I will go on
You will go on
Together we'll be stronger
Forever be the best we can

I take you as you are for me
So you make the same with me
Let's take my hands with yours and
Leave together free
We need no sex without love
We live in unity
Forever bound each other
We only want to be a family

Every time I see
Your eyes close to me
I feel fading all my tears
Before the day is gone
Another one has begun
In this eternity

Your love is all
I have to go on
And to say I'm not afraid
I pray these days will last
Forever
And forever not afraid
I will go on
You will go on
Together we'll be stronger
Forever be the best we can

Your love is all
I have to go on
And to say I'm not afraid
I pray these days will last
Forever
And forever not afraid
I will go on
You will go on
Together we'll be stronger
Forever be the best we can

Your love is all
I have to go on
And to say I'm not afraid
I pray these days will last
Forever
And forever not afraid
I will go on
You will go on

Together we'll be stronger
Forever be the best we can
