Bio:

The band starts its activity in early 2008 when the drummer Luca Ferraresi, the guitar-player Francesco Cataldo and the singer Massimiliano Ordine joined together. They are big hard-rock/AOR fans and they want to create a project where they could express their musical influences and roots. The style reflects the sound of the bands they always loved: Whitesnake, Dokken, Winger, Journey, TNT, etc.The creative process is very natural and, in a short time, they came up with a lot of ideas and some song. Few months after, the line-up is completed by the keyboard-player Pier Mazzini and the bass-player Cristian Guerzoni. Both of them share the same musical influences so their integration is immediate.The musical feeling between the musicians is very good and quickly they create several songs: 13 of them are in the band's debut CD.Recordings were made in the spring of the 2009 with the band involved as musical and executive producer. Mixing and mastering process was done by Roberto Priori at "Pristudio" in Bologna - Italy.In July 2010, after considering several offers from record labels, they choose to sign a deal with the German label Avenue-of-Allies who will take care of the artwork, distribution and promotion of the debut CD. The album is called "Hold Your Dreams" and will be released worldwide October 15, 2010.In March 2012 the line-up changes with the arrival of a new bass player : "Frank Paulis aka Captain Hollywood"

Album

The band's debut "Hold Your Dreams" originally included 12 songs, in 2017 reissued / remastered plus a bonus track.Inspired by '80s AOR legends, "Hold Your Dreams" is a clear rendition to the glory days of arena rock, when melody and the emphasis on the feel-good vibe ruled the airwaves.Part of the 'new wave of Italian AOR / Melodic Rock", Perfect View was formed by Massimiliano Ordine, Francesco Cataldo and Luca Ferraresi back in 2008. Even though touted as a fairly new band in the scene, some of the members have previously collaborated with Olaf Thorsen (Vision Divine, Labyrinth), Roberto Tiranti (Labyrinth) and Alex DeRosso (Dokken, Dark Lord).All are competent musicians, the driven force of the band in this first album are guitarist Cataldo delivering great melodious riffs & solos (obviously influenced by the guitar heroes Eddie Van Halen, Nuno Bettencourt, Frankie Sullivan et all) and synth / keyboardist Pier Mazzini, both providing wonderful runs and an interesting palette of sounds.But the star in this recording is singer Ordine. His voice is clear and melodic, powerful when needed, with a tone reminiscent of Fergie Frederiksen's job on TOTO's 'Isolation'. His pipes will leave on you an impact especially on tracks like “A Reason To Fight” and “One More Time”.Opener "A Better Place" starts with a TOTOish keyboard line, then the verses and chorus pay tribute to Journey, while the guitar solo structure is absolutely Eddie VH. Looks like a strange coctel on the paper but works very well."Closer" is a radio friendly commercial tune like mid-Eighties Steve Perry with a catchy chorus, while on the aforementioned "One More Time" the swirling keyboard lines and the vocal performance by Massimiliano makes this song one of their best."Believe" is totally TOTO, just listen the keys and guitar interplay. The vocals are rougher than the previous tracks but controlled and perfectly arranged. Great job.The guys clearly leave all influences in the open as the familiar TOTO sounds and the edgier heavier crunch of bands like Edge Of Forever which feature strong vocals as well are eminent.You can hear this on the heavier riff of “Run”, one of the heaviest tunes on the CD.If the swivel sounds of “Don’t Turn Away” don’t remind you of Extreme then you’re not listening closely, this track delivers a youthful exuberant of energy and expertise musicianship."A Reason To Fight" is a classic late '80s ballad, it's almost impossible not to think in Warrant's 'Heaven' listening to this tune. But the band has given the track a rich orchestration that enhances the melody to a high level. The best arranged song in this disc.Title track is very melodic, a well crafted mid-tempo with vocals to my ears inspired by TNT's Tony Harnell, "Showtime" rocks harderwith some Dokken on it, whilst "Where's The Love" is a slow, long-lasting ballad.Bonus track "No Mercy" has no mercy indeed, the most uptempo track here, rocking with sharp riffage however the chorus is really melodic, inspired by the mid-Eighties Euro scene.When originally released, "Hold Your Dreams" was one of the surprises / best debuts that year, and for many, still stand's as Perfect View's best.It's musically their most varied album to date, ranging from AOR to melodic hard rock, with a strong songwriting, good taste in arrangements, tons of energy and character in the musicianship.

Album

Now signed by Lions Pride Music, Italian melodic rockers PERFECT VIEW will release their third opus titled "Timeless" on October 29, 2018.With already two solid albums under their belt, "Timeless" should be their most complete album to date where they have refined the songwriting with more elaborated arrangements, stronger harmonies, and catchier hooks / choruses in the traditional Euro melodic rock / AOR style."Timeless" showcases a step further in Perfect View's career; the band achieved to include the best elements from their first two releases plus an edgier approach, plus incorporating lite progressive touches at the service of the melodic rock pulse, resulting in a more enjoyable, complete piece of work.The first couple of tracks, "Stop Me Kill Me Leave Me" and "Can't Stop The Fire", are perfect examples of what to expect from the new album; soaring lead vocals, tight rhythm section, layers of guitars, and majestc choruses.Now production & mix are top notch, something the previous albums miss at places. Everything sounds polished, clear, bright melodious."Your Love Is Gone" is a beautiful ballad and reminds me of the American very early '90s bands / production style, while in "Don't Look Back" Perfect View delivers a fast-paced melodic hard rock monster that is probably one of the new album best moments.The more technical and groovier "Fallin'" is just killer, then things are balanced with a more easy listening approach on songs like the AORish "Lorelai" (brings to mind Lionville) and "Outlaw", the latter with some fun Van Halen-type guitar licks to enjoy.With "Promises" we have yet another winner, a wonderful uptempo AOR tune that will please every melodic fan out there. There's lots of keyboards here, resulting into a very European sounding track recalling great Swedes Grand Illusion.As said, Perfect View have grown here, and while some would think too much risky into a melodic rock album, they try something different with title track "Timeless".Instead of recycling their sound & style of old, Perfect View offers something different with "Timeless. The classic melodic rock / AOR fashion is still here in spades, even with better catchy choruses, yet the guys decided to add some new ideas, resulting, in balance, a much complete product.Kudos to these Italians for delivering one of the most interesting albums of the year in this musical genre.

Album

The band was born at the beginning of 2008. The sound is close to bands like Toto, Whitesnake, Dokken, Winger, Journey, TNT, etc. They signed a deal with the German label Avenue Of Allies Music and the debut album ws called "Hold Your Dreams", released worldwide in 2010. In 2012 a special edition of the album was released. 2013 saw the band performing several live shows and working in the studio for the realisation of the new album entitled "Red Moon Rising" which was released in 2014. Towards the end of the same year the Japanese version was released by Rubicon Music. In 2018 the band signed a new contract with Danish label Lions Pride Music. The band's third album, "Timeless", was released at the end of 2018.The following year Rubicon Music released and distributed the album in an Japanese edition. In 2020 the band recorded a song of Kiss that was included on the compilation "We Keep On Shoutin' - KISS Tribute" whose proceeds were entirely donated to the Cancer, Drugs & Rock 'n Roll association (fundraising for cancer research). After a major line-up change, the band recorded the new album "Bushido", which will be released in the spring of 2023 once again on Lions Pride Music. The new album is a rock opera dedicated to the world of the samurai. It tells the story of a Japanese boy who is born with a disability, but who manages to pursue his dream of becoming a great samurai just like his grandfather had been. It is undoubtedly the album that required the most effort from the band, for the lyrics, for the music and for the arrangements. The band wants to pay homage to a fascinating country and culture.
