Biography

Since 1996, the southern Italian lands saw the birth, growth, and establishment of a melodic death metal act by the name of ‘Steel Cage,’ spawned by an idea from both guitarists and brothers Gianluca & Giuseppe Rungetti and drummer Genny Eneghes. During the same year, they produced a demo tape, ‘Abyss of Steel,’ a first dark, beaming vision.

During 1997, the band underwent changes in the lineup, but nothing stopped the Rungetti brothers and Genny from working on new ideas for future production, concentrating on mixing Death, Gothic, and some Progressive with their primary roots based in Thrash Metal, infused with anger and the pain of living in a sick society.

“Visions Of Dark Millennium” and “Red Blood Planet”

In January 1999, a new and stronger lineup recorded ‘Visions of Dark Millennium,’ a demo CD, which was well received by the national metal press and relevant web media. From then on, the band worked hard on their skills and started to play live across their native country, sharing the stage with bands such as Vision Divine.

In 2003, after a few years of hard work, the band presented a new enhanced CD, ‘Red Blood Planet,’ reaching much better exposure in the main national metal magazines, becoming a top release among Italian metal records (METAL SHOCK n.379).

2004 was the year the band worked even harder, appearing live with Cadaveria and Illogicist.

“OBSIDIAN”

By March 2007, after another period of hard work, the new album ‘Obsidian’ was completed as their fourth release. It was a more mature, rational work, as sharp as obsidian and as strong as the will to keep going forward. This time, they added a female singer with a variety of vocals, from clean and melodic to screaming and raw, giving a new edge to the songwriting and performance of Steel Cage.

In January 2011, the digital release of OBSIDIAN became available on worldwide online stores! Check it out on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, and many others!

In spring 2015, along with their long-time friend Antonio on bass guitar, new and old ideas were gathered for the new album Syndrome. Recording began in late 2017.

Antonio left the band in 2018, and their old friend Marco (former bass guitar player on VISIONS OF DARK MILLENNIUM) rejoined the band to take on bass duties.

“SYNDROME”

Due to the pandemic lockdown, in order to record vocals for the new album, the goddess-mother Lilith and the prince of demons Asmodeus were summoned, to handle the duties of grace (clean) and curse (growl) vocals.

On March 20th 2021, the first single from the new album SYNDROME, IN-STATIC MIND, was announced, followed by three more singles: BLACKEST PRAY, REVENGE (of Sanity), and WELCOME OBSCURITAS.

In November 2021, Silvia Nardoni joined the band as the new singer… “WELCOME, obsc….SILVIA!!!”

In January 2022, Steel Cage signed with Sliptrick Records, and on July 19th, the album Syndrome was released, available on all global streaming services and as a CD/digipack.

In July 2024, the new single “Into the Abyss” hits the stores, along with the brand-new videoclip!

More news yet to be disclosed… stay STEEL!
