Aneurysm was an Italian industrial metal band, formed in 1994 in Verona. They have defined their genre as cyber metal. ^[2]

History and style

Influenced by 1980s thrash metal bands such as Metallica, Pantera and Fear Factory, Aneurysm combined thrash with progressive metal and characteristic vocals, in what they have described as cyber metal. ^{[3] [4]}

Seven years after the demo-tape Burst (1995), their first full-length album Aware (2002) was released to received positive reviews. ^{[5] [6]} In June 2005, Aneurysm began recording Shades, a concept album with Hansi Kürsch from Blind Guardian as a guest artist. ^[7] In 2007 the album was released by Old Ones Records ^[8] and was positively received by critics and the public. ^[9]
