Ottone Pesante (Heavy Brass in italian) is a unique and incredible band: trumpet, trombone and drums playing metal, making a huge step beyond the traditional idea of Extreme Metal, based on the classic sound of Bass and Guitar. The band formed in Faenza, Italy in 2015 and released 2 EP (Ottone Pesante in 2015, ...and the Black Bells Rang in 2022), 3 full lengths (Brassphemy set in stone in 2016, Apocalips in 2018, DoomooD in 2020), a split (Subsound records Split Series #8 in 2019) and two books of scores. With more than 350 shows all over Europe through 18 countries in just 5 years, Ottone Pesante is currently destroying a lot of boundaries between Metal, Jazz, Brass and Avant-Garde genres.
