Born in 2020 and using only synths, piano, and drums, the italian duo formed by Fabio Cuomo and Andrea Peracchia is a pure force of nature, able to perfectly blend latin, prog, disco, and even punk and craft It in one of the most unique sound to date.
Gotho is an Italian instrumental duo pushing the edges of progressive and experimental rock. Formed in 2020 by Fabio Cuomo (synths, electric piano) and Andrea Peracchia (drums), the band fuses math rock precision with metal intensity, jazz fluidity and cosmic sci-fi atmospheres. Their sound is raw, immediate and entirely live-driven — no loops, no backing tracks, no overdubs. Following their critically noted debut MindBowling (2022), Gotho returned in 2024 with Gothron Versus Fartark, a futuristic concept album released by Supernatural Cat Records. Expanding their palette with vocoder textures and cinematic narratives, the record positions the duo as one of the most imaginative new voices in Italy’s experimental rock scene. Onstage, Gotho are explosive and unpredictable, channeling improvisation into dense, high-energy performances that blur genre boundaries and bend expectations. Their music is bold, playful, and fiercely inventive — a journey through rhythm, distortion, and deep-space storytelling.
