After performing a great number of shows in the underground scene for a couple of years, in 2005 and 2006 they recorded the first self-produced EPs The Breath Of The Dog and Foam with the bass player Alessandro Petraccia.
In 2007 they sign a contract with MP Records, and, with the bass player Phil De Rubeis, the first album, Second Era Of Stonehenge, is released with an international distribution (GTMusic Distribution). The album is recorded with the help of Fabio Liberatore (David di Donatello winner and Soundtracker of Carlo Verdone movies) and succeeds in Europe with the single Foam, which inspires their first video clip. During 2007 and 2008 Clepsydra promote the Album with a long tour and attend various TV and radio shows in Italy including Database (Rock TV), 105 On The Beach (Radio 105), MTV and All Music; the second single and video clip from Second Era Of Stonehenge, The Passer By, is out in 2008 and reach the USA audience (radio and satellite).
At the same time in 2008 the band begins to write new songs and the line-up changes again, now they recruit the bass player Luca Trifoni. On March 2009 Clepsydra release their second studio work, In Other Sunsets, a concept album where the pure power-trio arrangement (guitar, bass, drums) is enriched by the use of violins, sinth, percussions, sitar and organ; a 65 minutes journey among progressive, space rock and psychedelia. Thanks to the worldwide success of the new album both in sales than in positive critics from the press (USA, Holland, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, Canada, France, Sweden), in 2009 the band produce three hits/videoclips: Majestic12\Eyes Only, Lost In The Universe and Along The Cam Nothing More; the hits have a good success on MTV, Rock Tv and on various international broadcasts.
