Rexor from Florence rises in 2004 from the ashes of 2 local thrash-death bands. The first incarnation of the band was formed by: Hate (voice), Lupus (bass guitar), Andras (guitar), Irae (guitar) and Demian. In September 2004 comes out the first demo "Infernum Dominium", that gains excellent responses from the specialized press. Due to personal problems Irae leaved the band and was replaced by Storm. In 2005 the band released the Ep “Infinite Vis Obscuritas” with 4 new blasting songs in pure Rexor style. In spring 2006 the band fired the drummer Demian for musical divergences and replaced him with Pesten, a more blasting drummer that the old one.
In early 2008 the band signs for Copro Records (UK) and in spring of the same year releases the first full-length album "Ain", distributed worldwide through Plastic Head. The album received very good review on both printed magazines and webzines, in Italy and on the whole European country. In late 2008 the band was forced to stop its activity due to internal members disagreements on band's music. In Summer 2010, Hate and Storm decide to change the 3/5 of the band, recruiting Dionysos on drums, Asmodeus on guitar and Dysangelium on bass. That new line-up signs a deep evolution in the sound of the band, moving from a pure, raw dark form of black metal to a more “melodic” and complex music dimension, contaminated by gloomy atmospheres not losing at the same time the aggression and ferocity of primordial black metal. The next Ep “Nox Obscura Sortis”, released in 2012 by Metallic Media (Usa), Black Dominion (Poland) and Eastern Voice Prod.(Malaysia) and the first completely realized by this line-up, goes straight to this formula, and the upcoming second full-length “Ut Humanitatem Caedant” exalt this aspects of songwriting at highest level. Through the years the name of Rexor spread constantly on Italian territory and over, allowing the band to share the stage with some of the most important name of the legendary black metal scene: Mortuary Drape, Taake, Aura Noir, Marduk and Carpathian Forest are some of the names Rexor has played with, creating in the time a very die-hard fanbase around them, ready to follow the band for every gig out there. “Ain” and “Nox Obscura Sortis” are almost sold-out, an important result reached by Rexor with perseverance and incendiary live shows, and they’re searching at the moment the best option to release “Ut Humanitatem Caedant” worldwide.
