RanestRane

RanestRane is an Italian prog band from Rome that was formed in 1998 with the aim to compose and perform a rock-opera. Unlike other famous rock operas, where the movie is based on the story conceived by the musicians, RanestRane choosed the gothic masterpiece of W. Herzog “Nosferatu The Vampyre”, and composed a whole new soundtrack with the songs telling the story to the public. They started their live activity in 2000, performing a show called “cineconcerto”, with the images of the Herzog’s film flowing in the background.
