Bio:
Marchello was an 80's band that practiced a hard rock / AOR style and that only came to publish an album officially, called "Destiny"...1989's Destiny was the debut album from American melodic hard rock band Marchello. Led by guitarist/vocalist Gene Marchello, the band had a great melodic rock sound with plenty of hard rock punch and an almost European polish. I'd put them in the same general area as bands like TNT, White Wolf and Treat, with perhaps a little Europe and Aldo Nova pop sensibility thrown in for good measure.Too polished for the Hollywood hair scene, and not heavy enough for the metal scene, Marchello had a tough time breaking through, so Destiny ended up being their only album. It's a shame, because the band had a great sound. Gene Marchello serves up some very impressive guitar theatrics, and they're balanced with plenty of catchy hooks and melodies. The lyrics get a bit silly at times, but hey, it was the `80s after all. The vocals are solid, as is the overall production. It's just a good, enjoyable melodic rock album all around.If you're a fan of the `80s melodic rock sound, Marchello is a band you'll definitely want to hear. Unfortunately Destiny is long out of print and not easy to track down. I'm surprised a label like Wounded Bird or Rock Candy hasn't reissued this `80s gem yet.
