MASTER BOOT RECORD (aka MBR) is a Computer Metal project founded in 2016 by producer Vittorio D’amore, blending heavy metal and synthesized electronic music. Gaining an increased popularity worldwide since its inception, MBR has also produced the video game “VirtuaVerse” as well as its original soundtrack - released in 2020 on all gaming platforms as well as on Nintendo Switch, Xbox and Playstation.
The project increased its live activity in 2022, welcoming guitar virtuoso and Ibanez endorser Edoardo Taddei on lead guitar and technical death metal drummer Giulio Galati into the fold. They have come to be known as one of the most active live acts in the hybrid electronic/metal scene.
MBR has released 14 albums so far via multiple record labels and has been one of the most successful artists on Bandcamp, charting #1 in general charts several times, and landing regular features and interviews on the platform as a result.
The rapid growth of the project sparked an intense live activity with several tours in Europe, North American and slots on the international festival circuit. In 2024–2025, MASTER BOOT RECORD expanded globally with the release of “Hardwarez” (Metal Blade Records, 2024), followed by an extensive world tour across North America, Canada, the UK, and Europe. Having recently toured as support for French electronic metal band Igorrr across Europe, Master Boot Record return to the UK for their own set of headline shows with Italian death metallers Fulci.
FULCI
Where death metal collides with cult horror cinema, Fulci creates sonic nightmares inspired by the legendary films of Lucio Fulci.
Fulci is not just a death metal band, it’s a cinematic horror experience. Taking their name from the legendary “Godfather of Gore,” Lucio Fulci, the band merges their two deepest passions: death metal and horror cinema.
Deeply inspired by the blood-soaked imagery and atmosphere of Lucio Fulci’s films, the band pays homage to the maestro by crafting concept albums that channel his vision into extreme music.
With four full-length albums and a live session already released, Fulci has carved out a unique space in the international death metal scene. Their relentless touring has taken them across the United States as both headliners and tour support for icons like I Am Morbid, Suffocation, Cannibal Corpse, and Municipal Waste, while in Europe they have crushed major festivals including Party.San, Brutal Assault, and Obscene Extreme. Currently signed to 20 Buck Spin Records, Fulci stands at the forefront of modern death metal.
A Fulci live show is more than a concert, it’s a horror movie brought to life. Through immersive video projections, chilling lights, eerie synthesizers, and theatrical staging, their performances blur the line between stage and screen.
Beyond music, Fulci maintains a creative partnership with the fashion powerhouse Slam Jam, producing exclusive events, products, and performances. Their impact has earned recognition from heavyweights like Max Cavalera, filmmaker Eli Roth, and Dwid Hellion, while KERRANG! Magazine named them among the “50 Bands That Revitalized Death Metal in the Last 10 Years” securing the #35 spot on the list.
Fulci is more than a band. It’s gore. It’s horror. It’s death metal redefined.
