Italy-based electronic metal project Master Boot Record (MBR) will return to European stages in Fall 2024 for a full tour! Check the full routing below.
Master Boot Record is helmed by technologist, producer & songwriter Victor Love (AKA Vittorio D’Amore). Founded in 2016, Love fuses heavy metal and synthesized electronic music to fabricate a sound that exists in a singular category of its own.
The live shows see D’Amore taking the stage along with guitar virtuoso Edoardo Taddei on lead guitars and technical death metal drummer Giulio Galati and features stunning retro-visuals in a journey into demoscene, crack scene, and retrogaming.
Comments Love: “We are very excited to return to Europe this fall to spread the code after the great success of our previous tour! We’ll revisit many cities where we’ve already performed, as well as explore new ones, as we continue to expand our touring plans in collaboration with Doomstar Bookings. With a new album expected to release just before the tour, we will introduce a fresh setlist that includes new songs along with classics from our discography. Additionally, we plan to enhance our visual shows with more hardware, computers, cathode TVs, and a load of floppy disks to be thrown at the end of each show”!

Master Boot Record’s most recent studio offering, “Personal Computer”, was released in 2022 on Metal Blade Records. “Personal Computer” serves as Love’s eighth full-length album since emerging — as an 8-bit ghost — from the bulletin board system (BBS) scene in 2016. A symbolism-rich mélange of intensely ornate yet driving digital orchestrations, don’t call Personal Computer synthwave, or whatever new-fangled term is being used to describe Master Boot Record’s masterful video game-like scoring. To put it simply: this is metal done with a synth.
