The band was formed in 2003. The original group, made up of the drummer Paolo Lastrucci, the bass player Lorenzo Fini, the guitarist Orlando Perri, immediately tends to create music of it's own under a progressive-rock influence. Afterwards a new element joins the group, the pianist Claudio Bianchi, who brings the group the technical and compositional experience they need. The real growing of the group comes in the Spring of 2005 through the replacement of the guitarist Orlando Perri with Tullio Forteleoni and the entry of Giovanni Valente (from a well-known cover band), a singer with a rich Live experience. The group, complete with the five members, starts to work on the first lyrics in a recording study of it's own, passing through a very good formative period that produces the recording of a first demo CD in 2005. The lyrics included in the first CD are: Progressive Experience-Pt.2, No despair, Short essay of the Universe, Involution. Soon after the group begins to play in various places of the surroundings of Prato near Florence arousing a considerable interest both in the public and in the experts, getting good results (third ranking in Anomalia Contest 2006, Black out Contest 2006, Officina Giovani in Prato), besides the many previous Live experiences of each member both in contests (Suoni nella notte, Cencio's Contest, Keller Contest) and in performances in the province of Prato (Mulligan's and others). Because of personality misunderstandings in Spring 2006, the group replaces the guitarist Forteleoni and, in order to reach a more personal sound and a greater number of listening public, decides the entry of two new guitarists Marco Giovannetti (music master at the Lizard Academy in Florence) and Francesco Munaò. The group, now made up of six members, starts re-arranging the "old" lyrics and the composition of new ones, even thanks to the fresh ideas of the new members and, without disregarding the lyrics influenced by literary sources (being an important element of the production) in Summer 2006 the band enters a study to record the first official CD, entitled "X", containing 10 songs. It awakens great interest in some record companies which leads the group to sign a contract with Sweet Poison Records for a long-term project. "X" is consequently released all aver the world by PHD and SELF and gets excellent reviews by the experts on qualified magazines such as Metal Hammer, Metal Maniac, Rock Hard and Flash. The promotional tour sees Progressivexperience perform as headliner on the stage of Cencio's in Prato and as opening band at the concert of the Hydrogin at Jailbreak in Rome. During the live at the Cencio's "Live X" is recorded. In December 2007, the band enters again the recording studio for "21st Century Brain Damage". This time the album has a more definitely metal sound, which can be immediately felt from the dark and apocalyptic cover. The CD boasts, besides the collaboration with the vocalist Titta Tani, even the prestigious contribution of George Marino for the final mastering. During the recording of " 21st Century Brain Damage", the vocalist Giovanni Valente decides to leave the group for private matters and is replaced by Andrea Ranfagni who boasts important collaborations with Ian Paice, famous drummer of Deep Purple, Bernie Mardsen (Whitesnake), etc... The CD, again produced by the Sweet Poison Records and released by Self and PHD, gets good reviews both in international and Italian fields, where some specialist magazines voted "21st Century Brain Damage" Top Album 2008 The band performs live being present in important events such as Mostrock 2009 together with DGM and Vision Divine and even on the historic stage of Wabe in Berlin in occasion of the International Rock Conspiracy 2011.
