about

Blazing Star was a hard rock studio project formed in Italy in 2005, as a personal tribute to the music we loved.
Looking back to those days, the result was a well balanced sound between those 70/80s hard rock works (think of Rainbow, Europe, Scorpions, MSG, Rising Force) and the melodic side of Heavy Metal.
After a 4-tracks demo released in 2006, Blazing Star entered their own studio to record what would have become "Blazing Star II", using then home-recording technologies, makin' obvious amateur mistakes, but putting into it so much heart & soul! The promo-CD saw the light in December 2008.

In 2009, Blazing Star hit the Record Store Day stage as their lonely live appearance, playing a bunch of unplugged songs. Casually, that "show" was bootleged and two tracks from it has been included here as bonus tracks. Pardon the awful quality!

The project disbanded in 2010, when it was on the launch-track for a live activity (featuring a drummer as well) but, before leaving the sences forever, Blazing Star dropped the "Out of Time" unreleased track on their website, as their very swan song.That single is officially available here, for the FIRST TIME!

Since the band members are no more in touch, what you'll listen here is the ONE AND ONLY heritage Blazing Star have left.
