Additional notes

Astaroth (Ita) was created in Rome by drummer John Panko Onofri and original guitarist Steve Lenti during 1982. Lenti was supplanted by Max Cipicchia. Perhaps one of the more impressive Italian Metal bands to have emerged in the mid 80\\\'s. Astaroth (Ita), fronted by the confident vocals of Bob Cattani, impressed the Dutch label Rave On Records enough to obtain a contract leading to the release of a mini album entitled \\\'The Long Loud Silence\\\' in 1985. A demo tape billed as \\\'U.S.A.\\\' arrived in 1988.
