Raein is an Italian hardcore punk band that includes members of La Quiete, and the post-rock band Neil on Impression. The band broke up in late 2005, but after 2-year hiatus (during which they played 2 shows) they regrouped in September 2007.

Raein is often credited for bringing the screamo genre to Europe following its peak in the United States, during the careers of bands in the genre such as Orchid and Saetia.

History

[edit]

In 2008, Raein released a new album, embarking on an extensive international tour in 2009 to support the new release.[citation needed]

In 2011 they released their album Sulla linea dell'orizzonte fra questa mia vita e quella di tutti for free on their website.[2]

At the beginning of 2013, the band once again embarked on an extensive tour of the US, UK, Canada and Puerto Rico, playing 20 shows in 22 days. In April a 7" split with Loma Prieta was released on Deathwish Inc. records.[3]

Raein 4th studio album Perpeetum was released on April 30, 2015, through their Facebook page,[4] followed by an 8" split with Ampere.[5] That year they appeared at Fluff Fest in the Czech Republic for the third time after 2008 and 2011.[citation needed]
