THE WATCH are a 5 piece band from Milan, Italy. Their music is inspired by classic style prog of the 70's and in particular by the music of Genesis. The first album was released in 2001, called Ghost and then came in 2004 Vacuum and in 2007 Primitive. In 2009 the band released its first live album, called The Watch live.
Melody and energy are the main aspects of The Watch music and the live dimension is one of the greatest focus points of the band. All their energy and inspiration come out on stage as a confirmation of how much they believe in what they do. The line up of the band has changed several times through the years. Simone Rossetti, founder and main composer is the singer of the band since the very first times. Simone Stucchi has produced all The Watch records and he's still there, following the band on stage as sound engineer.
Since the end of 2008, the band has the best line up ever, according to S Rossetti. Infact the band is now gaining recognition globally for its own unique songwriting following the release of the 2010 album Planet Earth. Since December 2009 they have been touring relentlessly, touching Europe the US and Canada.
The next album will feature self-penned material along with extensive reworks of 4 songs from the Genesis to Revelation album.
