The band was born in 1996 under the name of Animalator. After many years of live performances and two demos welcomed by the critics, the band split up due to deep individual incompatibilities within.
This didn't stop Neil and Lehmann, who in summer of 2004 brought the band back to life with a new line-up under the name of Neurasthenia: Neil (vocals/rhythm guitar), Lhemann (bass), Simone (lead guitar), Leo (drums). Finally in early 2005 with the new members the band recorded his first demo entitled "Full Force Of Thrashers!" and the single "Majestic March".
After one year of a good live activity, the band's line-up changed again with Steve (drums) and Phill (lead guitar). At the beginning of 2006 the band released "Return Under Neurasthenia" and with this final line-up the live activity around Italy grown very well.
