Born in May 1984 with inspiration coming from prominent acts such as Venom, Discharge and Hellhammer, Schizo can be considered one of the finest and most respected extreme bands to ever originate in Europe. After the release of three demo tapes Schizo gave birth to the celebrated masterpiece "Main Frame Collapse" at the beginning of 1989.

With the 90's approaching, a series of circumstances, including [mostly] personal problems between founding members Alberto, Carlo and S.B. Reder, lead to the departure of these last two, but after almost one year of complete silence, Schizo came back on the map with a new line up, including guitarist Vittorio and drummer Pat, joining Ingo and Alberto. The result of months of rehearsal and serious commitments of time and money was "Wounds (In The Clay)", which saw Schizo threading different paths in both songwriting and lyrical departments. 1993 saw Schizo releasing the "Sounds Of Coming Darkness" MCD.

April 2007 sees Schizo coming back with a new back-breaking, psychotic and heavier-than-ever metal opus. "Cicatriz Black" is the title of the brand new album released by Scarlet Records. Prime mover Alberto Penzin is once again joining forces with original axeman S.B. Reder, along with drummer Dario Casabona and singer Nicola Accurso. For those who never stopped to believe, Schizo are finally back! In september 2007, Alberto Penzin was expelled from Schizo because of technical and musical deficiencies and incompatibilities with the rest of the band.

Finally, in January 2008, Schizo find the new adeptus Volcano (bass and vocals from the legendary cult band Sinoath), and he joins the band to create new sick stuff for the next album 2010: "Hallucination Cramps" is the title for the new and "anomalous" concept album.

In 2016 the new album “Rotten spiral” see the light via Punishment 18 Records.
