The band's history begins during the recording sessions of the first promo of HOLLOWEARTH, a power prog band made up of Angelo Musmeci, Fabiano Romagnoli, Cristian Antolini, Ivan Nastasi, Stuart Franzoni.

Just before debuting, three of us, Fabiano Angelo and Christian, decided to leave the band because of music disagreements, causing the following breaking up of it.

We decided to dedicate ourselves to another project, characterized of a new death-metal taste, abandoning the melodic vein peculiarity of the previous Hollowearth period. During the spring we started to compose the songs of our debut-promo entitled "Evolution Plan.Txt" with the monicker Lunarsea, Made up of 4 songs, recorded during the summer in the Music Farm Studio of Fabiano and finished in the early October 2003.

After the launching to webzines, record companies and so on, and after finding a general approval of our work, we realized that this band could mean something new in the underground movement of melodic death metal, but we needed to personalize more our sound to make Lunarsea really unique.

Thus we dedicated ourselves to the composition of new songs, trying new different harmonic structures, made up of melodic Death-metal core, and blast beat parts combined with clean vocals, and some progressive-synth elements. Following this new conception of style, we birth the second promo entitled "Bio Ashes Halo", made up of 4 songs and a cover by Police. After one year, we get in touch with BURNING STAR RECORDS, a greek label that offer us a contract for the release of our debut album. So, after some months spent in re-record the previous promos and a couple of new songs, in April 2006 we release Hydrodynamic Wave, out worldwide by different distributors. We was in Athens for a Promotiomal Tour, where we were interviewed by locals magazines and radios and also we got the opportunity to make a Pre-listening party in the famous TEXAS CLUB.

A new cycle has begun and we hope to obtain even more of our new effort. A new wave of melodic death-metal has begun. We hope to satisfy rough death-metal lovers and the romantic ones!
