About this user

Dramatic introduction:
The band was born in the womb of eve, where late at night the serpant´s magical seed met the bodacious ovum of the mother of all creation. there in that most hideous of acts the band sprawled forth like the bastard child that it was. unbeknownst to adam, the illegitimate child would grow and mature and spread it´s evil throughout the earth. Johnny was his name. that´s what I´m talkin´ about, the man, primordial and distructive, on the rise to make satan´s will known among men. something so terrifying that the Bible dares not speak of it, for fear of reprisals. but we are here to make the world know that we are his progeny.

About the first Album
Johnny on the Rise's debut, Down South, is an amalgam of sound, ranging from the early roots of country to classic and modern rock. In addition to vocal diversity, JOTR utilizes harmonica and mandolin alongside the more typical guitar arrangements. The first track from JOTR's debut, "Pretty Baby Blues" has a rhythm driven primarily by harmonica and is a wonderful homage to the importance and influence of the blues on what would later become honky-tonk, while "Poor Man's Soul" has qualities reminiscent of The Doors and even Pearl Jam. Down South is as much a biography as it is an album

That's what the press says about Johnny on the Rise:

Rockit.it:
"Fantastico. Finalmente c'è qualcosa di diverso in giro, in Italia ci mancava, e adesso c'è... "Down South" è una piccola perla di originalità, grazia e talento che un ascoltatore attento ed esigente non potrà non apprezzare."

Garagepress.com:
"They rock, they sing, they slip, they slide" ... "they also prove that they have the constitution for serious songs like the deep and thoughtful tune "The Wind" which tells a heart-breaking story of destiny and love in a moving, poetic way" ... "Johnny on the Rise has recently received a good deal of attention in the Roman music scene..."
