ABOUT THE BANDS

MAESTRO

The Band Maestro was crafted with the opinion of all the band mates,when finally their point of view was to be a Maestro. The mates were just like a coin before Maestro was formed ;they were all from different Genre with different Bands, but when finally they met together in a stiff situation, they had the same view in their minds to make an immortal image in all gigs, from there a big hand with a hard fist started in a small town called, HAFLONG. Maestro has an influence over the genre of Rap-Metal, New Age Progressive, Groove Radio Metal. Maestro's original composition are about the world in which every living being is facing a new challenge everyday including their own experiences in the quest for their own existence.
