FROM THE CRYPTS - CELEBRATING PAST ALBUM RELEASES in the HISTORY of HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL…

(2002 No Limits Special Edition Re-issue)
Background:
Upon the release of No Limits, interest in the band grew among Metal fans and independent labels. The popularity of the band increased not only in Italy and in Europe, but also overseas where some labels (Teichiku Records in Japan) offered to distribute the album. The band was in BURRN! Magazine’s top ten charts for almost six months. Joe Terry (Fabio Tordiglione) soon left the band, later becoming the frontman for Rhapsody Of Fire.
Labyrinth Bio (1990 - 1996):

Labyrinth formed in 1991 with the lineup of Franco Rubulotta (Frank Andiver - drums), Luca Contini (Ken Taylor - keyboards), Andrea Bartoletti (bass guitar), Andrea Cantarelli (Anders Rain - lead guitar), Carlo Andrea Magnani (Olaf Thorsen - lead guitar), Fabio Tordiglione (Joe Terry - vocals).
The band released their first demo Midnight Resistance. The demo got enthusiastic reviews in major metal magazines in Italy and Germany and that gave them the chance to sign with Underground Symphony, a new indie record label. Andrea Bartoletti left the band and was replaced by Chris Breeze (Cristiano Bertocchi). Piece of Time, their first EP, marked the direction the band was taking: pure melodic, keyboard-laden Speed Metal, which continued into their first full-length No Limits.
