Foreruner of the heavily conceptual (as the name suggests) Progressive Metal outfit CONCEPT. The group was originally formulated in Rome, Lazio as A.T.T. ('About Traverse Tracks') by lead vocalist Gianni Carcione, guitarist Mariano Croce, keyboard player Andrea Mastroianni and David Folchitto on the drums. Under this early guise a demo, 'Abstractive Fallacy', was laid down in September of 1999. By January of 2000 though the group had evolved into CONCEPT.
