MMP525
Studio Album, released in 2012
ITALY / MOLDOVA


After the three albums with the band NOSTALGIA
between 93 to 97 and the HEATWAVE experience
with a record in 99 here I'm back again after 13 years
with a new project with the help of my new keyboardist
Mauro Gaspa and my wife Liusea Cumpenici on vocals.
HEATWAVE DRUM is the combination of the English
word HEATWAVE and the Moldovan DRUM (ROAD).
In this new work will find a fusion of English and
American progressive rock, the melody of italian music
and the traditions of Russian and Moldovan art.
Because music had no bosses, no borders! Happy listening!

Massimo Mazzeo


GARDEN SHED (Japan)
"In their sound, you can hear influences of early Genesis.
The guitar is emotional. Mellotron is also used.
In some numbers, the sound reminds us of early Quidam.
Acoustic guitar, acoustic piano were heard since the Nostalgia days.
The attractiveness of acoustic sound added by lyricism sounds great in this album."

KAKERECO (Japan)
Their music is featured with beautiful female voice and of high quality.
This album is highly recommended for symphonic lovers with female vocalists.

KINESIS (Hanover, Maryland US)
"The word “drum” in the band name is not the English word but rather Moldovan for “road”.
As they say, music has no borders. Heatwave Drum is the best thing Mazzeo has done"
