The band was formed in 1994 by the guitarist Steve Minelli. After the first demo “Grind Revolution in Mass Evolution”, in December 1995 Node released their first EP "ASK", published by italian label Lucretia Records, featuring vocalist/guitarist Gary D’Eramo, bass player Klaus Mariani, drummer John Manti and Steve Minelli on lead guitar. "Cowards Empire", the 6th full lenght - recorded mixed and mastered by Larsen Premoli (Destrage) at RecLab studios, is released by Punishment 18 Records on April 26th 2016. It features 11 tracks with many special guests of the italian metal scene and a bonus DVD with live footage from Node's 20th Anniversary Concert. Live activity to promote the new studio release brought Node throughout 2016 and 2017 on many italian stages but also abroad (in Moscow and St. Petersburg supporting Kataklysm and in Prague). Meanwhile the line-up changes again: in 2018 Gary takes charge of the bass, leaving guitar duties to the new entries Giancarlo Mendo and Gabriele Ghezzi, raising the technical bar to a whole new level. Node released in november 2018 “Propheta”, a free download EP with a new song in italian language featuring thrashers In.Si.Dia, 5 live songs recorded with the latest line-up and a re-recorded verison of 2002 song “Jerry Mander”. Node is currently working on new music for their 7th album, bringing on live activity as well.
