Deadlock Crew, four friends and passionate musicians who love heavy metal

Deadlock Crew was born in Trieste, Italy, back in 1999. A solid metal band who maintained in time the same line up, energy and enthusiasm for hard music. Lorenzo and Giuliano, singer/guitarist and drummer, with their experience grown in many local music bands found a perfect synergy with Yure (guitar) and Daniele (bass guitar).

The project is to mash up the different musical genres that influenced their own music since the beginning as thrash metal, alternative metal and hard rock.
Immediately after the set-up of the band, they published a promo-cd called “Lobotomized people” which received a lot of positive reviews from the magazines of the time and pushed the band to remain active on the territory with many gigs, events, festivals and moto rallies

Live performances, made of “enthusiasm, watts and sweat”, soon became the addiction of the band; for this reason, studio recording was overshadowed by the attraction for the stage for an extended period. The COVID-19 years forced the four members to change course and to dedicate themself to developing and recording new material for the 2021 album “Look down on me”.

In 2024 the band has grown further and the fire of enthusiasm and energy has not decreased. On the contrary, after many live shows where they entertained rock/metal music fans, they released their new album “No way out”, a more aggressive and technical album than the previous one.
