Hounds are a heavy metal band from Turin, Italy, formed in 2016 by Massimo Ventura, Marco De Fabianis, and Enrico Cairola. They started out as a cover band before expanding their line‑up later that same year with Alessandro Zelferino and Stefano Paparesta, which pushed them toward writing original material. Since then they’ve released the EP “Hounds” (2018), followed by “Warrior of Sun” (2020), and most recently “Rise of the Immortals” (2025). In 2025 the guitar role shifted to Simone Galasso, who joined the band to replace Zelferino.
If you want to support them directly, over on their Bandcamp they have some cool merch for “Rise of the Immortals”, including a T‑shirt, CD, vinyl, and a bundle for fans who want the full set.
Remember buying physical merch always goes so much further. It puts more money in bands pockets, helping them to do what they do best and that is deliver the metal! So if you love the bands music and can do so, grab some merch and help keep the metal flame burning!
