Borrower Sign With Octopus Rising / Argonauta Records; New Album Underway

 

Italian heavy prog metallers Borrower have officially joined forces with Octopus Rising / Argonauta Records, marking a new chapter in their long running presence within the local underground. Their 2023 single Dream on Fire, supported by a striking music video, is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPwNrzAvhmI.

Formed in Presicce, Italy in 1993, Borrower quickly established themselves with early demos like Black Fire and Barrier of Truth, later followed by their 1996 self titled release Borrower, which cemented their distinctive heavy and progressive sound. Over the years, lineup changes and collaborations with other acts further shaped their identity. After periods of pause and side projects, the original members reunited in 2016, eventually releasing the A Plague Chapter… EP in 2018, introducing theatrical elements, masks, and a cinematic flair to their live performances.  

Strengthened in 2022 by the addition of Matteo Marzo on bass and Matteo Marini on live guitar, Borrower returned with renewed energy and began work on their upcoming album Killerdemons. The lead single Dream on Fire encapsulates their signature mix of powerful riffs, progressive arrangements, and vivid atmospheric tones.

Appealing to listeners of Motörhead, Dio, Judas Priest, and fans of both thrash and prog influences, Borrower are ready to reaffirm their presence in the hard rock and heavy metal landscape through their new partnership with Octopus Rising / Argonauta Records.
