Civile was born in
Caseros, Buenos Aires, and began his music career in the band Té de brujas. The guitarist of
V8, Ricardo Moreno, left the band in 1982 for health reasons and proposed Civile as his replacement. The drummer Alejandro Colantonio left the band as well, and was replaced by
Gustavo Rowek. The lineup of Civile, Rowek,
Ricardo Iorio and
Alberto Zamarbide is the most famous one of the band. They recorded two long plays,
Luchando por el Metal () and
Un paso más en la batalla (). The band moved to
Santos, Brazil, attempting to continue their career there. The project was abandoned and the band returned to Argentina in 1985, but Civile stayed in Brazil because his wife was ill. Civile returned to Argentina in 1988. He created a
thrash metal band,
Horcas. Newspapers that reported Civile's death used the pictures of him with the Grim Reaper to accompany the story. Gustavo Rowek pointed out that Civile had problems with
alcoholism and frequent episodes of
depression. He was buried at the Podesta Municipal Cemetery. The band edited the
Eternos CD and continued their career, but used different cover art for it. == Discography ==
