Aneurysm was an Italian industrial metal band, formed in 1994 in Verona. They have defined their genre as cyber metal.[2]
Influenced by 1980s thrash metal bands such as Metallica, Pantera and Fear Factory, Aneurysm combined thrash with progressive metal and characteristic vocals, in what they have described as cyber metal.[3][4]
Seven years after the demo-tape Burst (1995), their first full-length album Aware (2002) was released to received positive reviews.[5][6] In June 2005, Aneurysm began recording Shades, a concept album with Hansi Kürsch from Blind Guardian as a guest artist.[7] In 2007 the album was released by Old Ones Records[8] and was positively received by critics and the public.[9]
