About
Schizo is a legendary extreme metal band formed in Catania, Sicily, in 1984. They are widely recognized as pioneers of the Italian underground, being one of the first bands in the country to incorporate blast beats and proto-death/black metal elements into a frantic thrash metal framework. Their 1989 debut album, 'Main Frame Collapse,' is considered a cult masterpiece of European extreme music. Throughout their history, the band has maintained a raw, uncompromising sound and has seen various lineup changes, including collaborations with members of fellow Italian metal icons Necrodeath. After a period of inactivity in the late 1990s, the band reformed in 2005 and continues to be a driving force in the international extreme metal scene.
