Hungry Like Rakovitz

Bio:

Hungry Like Rakovitz take inspiration for the name from a weed-addict cannibal called Daniel Rakowitz (yes, they just differ for the "v").
Born in winter 2004 in Bergamo (north Italy) by Enrico (guitar) and Lopez (drums)
After some changes in the line-up at the end of 2005 they record the demo "Become Hungry" with Luciano George Lorusso (ex singer of Ephel Duath) on vocals
During 2007, after other changes behind the instruments (and a hiatus of almost two years), HLR are back with a new and solid line-up, Enrico stills on guitar, Simone (bass), Tiziano (drums) and Rubens (screams) join in.
In February 2008 the band start play live again.
In May 2009 HLR release a new EP, "HolymosH" with 13 new songs.

During the last two years the band had the pleasure to play a lot of shows in Italy and a tour over France, sharing the stage with bands like:
FUCK THE FACT (Canada), TOXIC HOLOCAUST (USA), SKELETON WITCH (USA), NESSERIA (FR), GOATWHORE (USA), WORMROT (Malesya), and a lot of other great bands from all over the world!
