Biography
Rome's Hour of Penance have played technical, brutal death metal since 1999. Formed around an anti-religious message, the band moved from black and death metal beginnings to the pummelling precision of 'The Vile Conception', 'Sedition' and 'Regicide', touring worldwide with *Cannibal Corpse* and *Behemoth*. No original members remain, but guitarist Giulio Moschini has anchored the band since 2004, and 'Misotheism' (2019) for #Agonia Records# kept their virtuosic attack intact.
