[edit] Biography

Bulldozer formed in 1980 by bassist Dario Carria and guitarist Andy Panigada. They were joined by Erminio Galli on drums. They were forced to split up in 1981 due to national service commitments but reformed in 1983 with Alberto Contini taking over bass and vocal duties and Don Andras playing drums[1] This line-up recorded the Fallen Angel demo (later to be re-issued as a 7"), their debut, Day of Wrath and their follow-up, The Final Separation. Day of Wrath was produced by Algy Ward of Tank-fame (yet another bass-driven thunderous power trio band) and the influence can clearly be heard.[1] Rob Cabrini was brought in on drums for IX:Circle of Hell (1987). This line-up recorded Neurodeliri (1988) and was captured live in Poland in 1990 for Alive...in Poland. Their final release was the posthumous Dance Got Sick EP.
