VIRTUAL TIME is a rock band from Bassano del Grappa, Italy, founded in 2012. The four members immediately started experimenting and looking for feelings and intensity among themselves to compose the early songs. Their style and influences can be traced back to the fantastic sound of the 70s in all its variations: from the Hard Rock of Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple to the Progressive Rock of King Crimson and Pink Floyd, passing through the Folk Rock of CCR and CSN&Y. Their main contemporary influences come from Muse and Black Keys.

​

The debut EP, Getting Twisted, showcases their aggressive side with three powerful songs featuring intense guitar riffing, gritty vocals, and a dynamic rhythmic section. In April 2014, the Getting Twisted tour took them across Spain. In spring 2015, Virtual Time recorded their debut full-length with Federico Nardelli as the artistic producer at Hate Recording Studio. The single "Fire World II" premiered in December 2015 on the Italian webzine Rockit. Soon after, it was featured as the "song of the week" on Virgin Radio Italia. In February, Virtual Time was the "Just Discovered" band on MTV Italy's New Generation TV show.  

​

Their debut album Long Distance was officially released in March 2016 and the band started a promotional tour throughout Italy and Europe. They entered the Top 10 of the KeepOn Live Parade and won the Venice Hard Rock Café Vinyl Contest. In March 2018, they embarked on an ambitious five-chapter project called Pictures.
