Kirlian Camera

About

Italian electronic act fronted by Angelo Bergamini. Kirlian Camera are one of the pioneers of the Italian electronic scene, who have encompassed many genres. Active from 1979 under the name Suicide Commando, the band changed name in 1980 releasing their first demo-tape "Dawn" and the self-titled mini-album in late 1981. The early records contain a mix of synth pop and new wave/dance songs, while towards the end of the 1980s' Kirlian Camera's music became darker, turning into electro-gothic sound.
