LA RECENSIONE

Sometimes we search for perfection in music. Sometimes we think the Italian scene lacks geniuses, musicians capable of flooding our winter days with sadness and dreams. Sometimes it doesn't take much to discover that near our home there are those who play and compose divine melodies. Ladies and gentlemen, we speak of A Toys Orchestra.

Five guys from Agropoli, in the province of Salerno, who have released their second work in recent months: "Cuckoo Boohoo". It's difficult to pinpoint an exact genre that could characterize their style. Lali Puna, El Guapo, Mum, dUES, Notwist, and Blonde Redhead above all. But their compositional ability is astonishing. "Panic Attack 1" and "Peter Pan Syndrome" shake our muscles, straight to the body. Intense vibrations. "3 minutes older" and "Elephant Man" are heartbreaking. Enzo, the singer, gives his best, expressing in a few minutes the skill of a group that will surely have a long road ahead...

An album you won't regret purchasing. The only thing I can truly recommend is to see them live... I've had the opportunity to attend many of their performances, and I assure you that despite my long experience as a "concert-goer," these little "local interpreters" left me speechless.
