Out of Parma, Italy, composer Lorenzo B (full name Lorenzo Armando Aldo Bazzoni) has taken a wild left turn, and it absolutely works. His new single Fate’s Hill, released on August 26, 2025, isn’t interested in following the usual rules. It’s dense, intricate, and unapologetically its own thing, the kind of track that sounds like it was written with both hands tied behind the back and sheer instinct steering the wheel.

A longtime drummer who once spent decades covering Symphony X and Dream Theater, Lorenzo has now swerved from prog-metal pyrotechnics into the realm of neoclassical experimentation, despite, hilariously, claiming he doesn’t even know music theory. Fate’s Hill proves how irrelevant that can be when your imagination is in overdrive.
The track unspools like a miniature symphonic saga: towering keyboard lines dart around martial percussion patterns, building tension that feels cinematic and slightly otherworldly. It doesn’t chase hooks; it builds moments. And somehow, those moments lock into each other like the gears of some ancient machine climbing a mountain that exists only in Lorenzo’s mind.

What makes this even more intriguing is its solitary nature: no bandmates, no co-writers, no studio ensemble, just Lorenzo alone in his studio sculpting sound until it bends to his will. It gives Fate’s Hill a strange, magnetic personality. You can hear both the precision of someone who’s drummed since the mid-’90s and the reckless spark of someone composing purely by ear.
