Museo Rosenbach are an Italian progressive rock band[1] whose album Zarathustra, in spite of the limited success it scored in the 1970s, is today considered a cornerstone of the genre.
La Quinta Strada and Il Sistema had played mostly songs by other popular artists like Jimi Hendrix and rock groups such as The Kinks, The Animals and Steppenwolf and by Rhythm & Blues stars like Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett.
Influenced by Pink Floyd and Banco del Mutuo Soccorso (among others), Museo Rosenbach released their first and most well-known album Zarathustra in April 1973.
The band provoked controversy for their supposed right-wing inclinations stemming from the image of Mussolini found in the collage on the album cover, and the Nietzsche-inspired lyrics.
In 2000, the band released the concept album EXIT[4] with Marco Balbo (guitar), Marioluca Bariona (keyboards) and Andrea Biancheri (vocals).
