Mad About Rock

  Italian progressive alt-rock band KLOGR are set to release their highly anticipated new album, 'Fractured Realities.' This compelling collection of music prepares them for a special guest appearance supporting Evergrey on their extensive UK-European tour this November and December. After a seven-year hiatus following their last album, 'Keystone,' KLOGR triumphantly returns with 'Fractured Realities.' Initiated during the lockdown, the album faced several delays due to personal challenges among the members but was finally completed in June 2024. 'Fractured Realities' marks a new chapter for the band, characterised by resilience and innovation. Gabriele 'Rusty' Rustichelli, the mastermind behind KLOGR, shared: "It wasn’t easy to get back on the scene after producing our album, 'Keystone', with David Bottrill (known for his work with Tool, Stone Sour, and Dream Theater) and spending two years touring. The pandemic forced us to pause e...

  After the forced stop due to the pandemic, KLOGR are coming back. They are ready to resume the songwriting session for the new album, suspended last September. The band also announces a new line up, welcoming (back) Filippo De Pietri as the new drummer. He was actually Klogr first drummer, who collaborated with Rusty on the band's debut album "Till You Decay" back in 2011. Rusty comments “We have tried to write music in different ways using technology but it is not our universe. I found myself in the studio with Fil and jamming together, that natural musical affinity immediately resurfaced. The next album will certainly be an emotional and instinctive album." Klogr are getting ready to be back on the road again both in selected festivals and headline shows, and confirm their collaboration with K2 Music Management who will work on the band's upcoming activities. Check out the 'Guinea Pigs' drums playthrough video with the new drummer: Stay tuned and foll...
