Biography

Tons formed in 2009 with members of hardcore bands from the 00’s Turin scene (The Redrum, Lama Tematica and NoInfo). Slow and heavy sounds take the place of frenetic HC rhythms; the texts speak about weed in an ironic way, but also about a certain tendency to esotericism that characterizes the city of Turin. In 2010 they recorded a demo and in 2012 their first full length “Musineè Doom Session, Volume 1”, recorded by Danilo “Dano” Battocchio, was released for the Turin-based Escape From Today (EFT050) and for the young Roman label, Heavy Psych Sounds (First non Black Rainbows release, HPS005). In 2013 a split with Lento from Rome came out and Tons began to plow the European venues, opening the stage for bands like Bongzilla, Unsane, Church of Misery, Napalm Death, Pentagram etc ... In 2015 the drummer Marco Dinocco left the band and was replaced by Andrea Peracchia (Dogs for Breakfast/Slaiver). Paolo Paganelli (Woptime/Linea77) was also added as lead guitarist. In 2018 the second full length of the band "Filthy Flowers of Doom" was released for Heavy Psych Sounds Records, which would bring Tons again around Europe in 2018 and in 2019. In 2021 they released a split record with the mighty Bongzilla followed by a European tour together in 2022. Now the band is coming back with a brand new album called "Hashension" and for the 10th anniversary of their debut album "Musineè Doom Session, Volume 1" will be released as a repress with remastered audio and a new cover artwork.
