ITALOPORNO (USA/GER) is a dynamic live electric-disco-funk collective made up of five musicians and a live VJ. Instrumentation includes female and male lead vocals, male background vocals, trombone, synthesizers, guitars, bass, acoustic and electronic drums and assorted percussion. ITALOPORNO was founded in 2006 in Berlin.
They have played nearly 100 live shows throughout Europe and the UK.
The members of the band prefer to forswear their names in favor of their onstage superhero pseudonyms: The Baron, The Advocate, The Spleen, The Minky and The Queen.
ITALOPORNO's latest single, "The Fall", a wistful disco dazzler, was released over Berlin label PALE MUSIC INTERNATIONAL in December 2009.
Their actual single, "Stardust" is a track of many faces, with the lips of a love song, the hips of a dancefloor burner and the brains and the balls of an amazing spacesploitation spectacular. The band is currently recording their debut album to be released in autumn 2012.
Glitter! Soul! Sex! Love! Best just be there and see it for yourself. ITALOPORNO will rock your disco!
