History & Biography
The white metal group was called Metafora between 1997 and 2001. Davide Bruno became a priest in 2001 and the name was changed to the new one, which means 'God is since now and forever.' The group appeared at the World Youth Day in Australia. A release only appeared in 2006. La Mano Potente was a demo. Rockshots Records, which would eventually sign the band, pressed it on CD in 2017. A 2006 album also appeared. Reborn In Christ was a 2009 single. It also appeared on the 2010 demo, Paradigma, which was also repressed by Rockshots later. The band released a 2013 single called Heavenly Field, which was written "against the Zionist policy supporting Gaza population at the time featuring Italian hip hop band One Crew as special guest on vocals."

The act signed with Rockshots and released Eucharismetal in 2016. Singer Lombardo left in 2019 and was replaced by Daniele Barbagallo. Lombardo returned in 2023 however. Italy-based white metal "Christian Catholic metal veterans" Metatrone had a single called Facsimile in 2025. It was taken from the band's upcoming studio album, which was set for release in 2026. The band had a keyboardist, which made sense given how the church also has an organ or keyboard.
