Biography


The Afterhours were formed in 1985 in Milan around Manuel Agnelli, a Velvet Underground fan. They debuted in 1987 with the single My bit boy, followed a year later by the EP All Good Children Go to Hell. The band has released two albums and two EPs in English. Since Germi (1995), the group switched to Italian language, except for Ballads for Little Hyenas, produced by Afghan Whigs leader Greg Dulli, who also played with the group in a 2006 tour in the United States. Afterhours also served as the Italian backing band to Greg Dulli and Mark Lanegan’s Gutter Twins project and Agnelli co-wrote two songs with Dulli on the Twilight Singers album Powder Burns.[1] In 2009, the band won the "Mia Martini" Critics Award at the Sanremo Music Festival. In the same year they released the compilation "Il paese è reale" ("The country is real") aiming to advance the Italian indie rock scene.

In 2014 the band released a double special edition of their most famous album Hai paura del buio?, containing a Remastered version of the original album and a new disc (called Reloaded) where every song was reinterpreted by a different artist, including John Parish, Afghan Whigs, Mark Lanegan, Damo Suzuki, Nic Cester and Joan as Policewoman.
