Hour of Penance Italy
Biography
Hour of Penance is a technical death metal band from Rome, Italy that was formed in 1999. They have released six full-length albums, the latest album Regicide being released in May 2014 through Prosthetic Records. Influenced at first by a combination of black metal and death metal, Hour of Penance would soon move away from those styles, and – being influenced by Cannibal Corpse – opt for a more up front and pummeling style. Their first demo hit the scene in 2000, and was followed by their first album, Disturbance, in 2003.
