Description:

Banco" is the first studio album in three years from the Italian progressive rock legend Banco was formed in 1968 by brothers Vittorio and Gianni Nocenzi. The band made its debut with "Banco First" in 1972. The band's activities were temporarily suspended due to the sudden death of Giacomo in 2014 and Vittorio's illness the following year, but they resumed their activities in 2016 with a new lineup. Currently, they continue their energetic activities. This is their 15th studio album in three years, since 2019. It celebrates the 50th anniversary of their debut with a grand concept based on the theme of "going back to their roots." The title "Orlando" refers to the epic poem "Orlando Furioso" by Ludovico Ariosto, an Italian poet active in the 16th century, and this "tale of love and adventure between a princess and a knight" became a bestseller during the Renaissance.Banco has been playing songs inspired by this story since its debut, and after 50 years, it has finally achieved a return to its roots.
