The Profile

Miura are an Italian rock band formed by Timoria’s rhythm section—Diego Galeri (drums) and Illorca (bass)—with guitarist Killa and singer Jack, later replaced by Max Tordini. Debuting with In testa (2005), they pushed into stoner/psychedelic territories on Croci (produced by Giorgio Canali) and expanded their palette on 3 (produced by Giacomo Fiorenza). A serious car accident involving Galeri and Illorca slowed early activity; Illorca faced a long recovery.

Italian rock band formed after Timoria’s breakup by Diego Galeri (drums) and Illorca (bass), joined by Killa (guitar) and initially Jack (vocals), later Max Tordini (ex-Mesas).

A severe car accident hit Galeri and Illorca before the debut’s promotion; Illorca was in a coma for a long period. Third album: 3, produced by Giacomo Fiorenza; tracks cited include "Normale", "Io, nella capsula del tempo", "Non vado forte", "Il solista", "Stimola", "Underworld", "Andiamoci piano con le emozioni", and the instrumental closer "Stalker".

Miura are an Italian rock band born from Timoria’s rhythm section (Diego Galeri and Illorca), joined by Killa and singers Jack, then Max Tordini. The reviews cover debut In testa (2005), the darker, stoner-psychedelic Croci, and the expansive 3, produced by Giacomo Fiorenza. A serious car accident halted early activity, but the band returned with notable collaborators (Giorgio Canali, Moltheni). The writing and sound evolve from Timoria echoes to fluid, exploratory rock.
