I Graal, da Roma, realizzano il loro debut album nel 2005, intitolato "Realm of Fantasy", autoprodotto nei formati Cd ed Lp (quest'ultimo piuttosto raro e quotato). Catturano quindi l'attenzione della Bloodrock Records che produce i due successivi album, "Tales Untold" del 2007 e "Legends Never Die" del 2011. Nel 2013 sempre la Bloodrock ristampa il loro debutto su doppio Lp. "Chapter IV", il nuovo e quarto disco è il piu' maturo e completo della loro discografia, sottolineando una costante e progressiva crescita. Musicalmente parlando i Graal si inseriscono bene nell' universo hard rock "vecchia scuola" : un po' di southern rock a la' Molly Hatchet, alcuni dettagli che mostrano un evidente influenza dei Deep Purple, altri che si mostrano piu' vicini ai primi Iron Maiden, Ufo e alla NWOBHM in generale, con sporadici inserimenti dal gusto folk.
The Italian quintet GRAAL first came to prominence in 2005 when it released its full-length debut album "Realm of Fantasy" (self-released on Cd and Lp). Since then the band has hooked up with label Bloodrock Records, and two new more productions have seen the light: "Tales Untold" in 2007 and "Legends Never Die" in early 2011. Also in 2013 Bloodrock reissued on double Lp their debut. "Chapter Iv",
the brand new album, is far by the most mature and complete of their discography, underlining a constant and progressive growth. Musically Graal is placed well inside the retro-oriented hard rock universe: few touches of southern rock Molly Hatchet-style, some details heralding a plausible Deep Purple influence, others with similarities closer to Iron Maiden and early 80's UFO, with occasional additional flavorings folk-oriented.
