A concise Intro



» REVIEWS



» Rate Your Music - Hibou

"There must be a prog god somewhere because I've just found perfection in the latest album from The WATCH."



» Prog Archives - Gatot Widayanto

"In a nutshell, Vacuum is what the Genesis would sound like if Hackett did not quit and Gabriel rejoined the band. Its like the follow-up album of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway released right after Wind and Wuthering."



» Progressive World - John "Bo Bo" Bollenberg

"Based on the many bands there are, spread over the last thirty years, I can clearly say The Watch is the absolute best, with Vacuum for sure being their absolute highlight."



» Progressive Rock & Progressive Metal



"The Watch is the band that represents the "Genesis" feeling at the present day, and is a specially work for all Genesis fans, where the songs contain references from memorable albums as Selling England By The Pound and Foxtrot."

» A BRIEF HISTORY



THE WATCH is a 5 pieces band from Milan. Their music is inspired by classic style prog of the 70ies and in particular by the music of Genesis. The first album was released in 2001, called Ghost and then came in 2004 Vacuum and in 2007 Primitive. In 2009 the band releases his first live album, called The Watch live. Melody and energy are the main aspects of The Watch music and the live dimesion is one of the greatest point of the band. All their energy and inspiration come out on stage as a confirmation of how much they believe in what they do. The line up of the band has changed several times through the years. Simone Rossetti, founder and main composer is the singer of the band since the very first times. Simone Stucchi has produced all The Watch records and he's still there, following the band on stage as sound engineer. Since the end of 2008, the band has the best line up ever, according to S Rossetti words infact the band activity is growing more and more. Since december they are involved in a long tour, touching Europe and Canada.
