Raw Power was formed in 1981 in Poviglio in the Italian province of Reggio Emilia by brothers Mauro (vocals) and Giuseppe Codeluppi (guitar). Through the years the band has lived through several line-up changes and the two brothers were the only stable members until Giuseppe’s death in 2002. The band’s name came from The Stooges ‘s third album . Previously, the Codeluppi brothers had played in another band called Off Limits. Other members in Raw Power’s first line-up were Silvio (guitar and vocals), bassist Maurizio Dodi (who came from punk band Chelsea Hotel) and teenager drummer Helder Stefanini.
