LA RECENSIONE

Second release for Aaron Bruno, the one-man band behind the project AWOLNATION, bizarre denomination for a creation capable of producing incredibly impactful songs with unprecedented ease.

"Megalithic Symphony", released by Red Bull Records and distributed by EMI Music, is a small gem that contains 14 tracks of indie-rock infused with a variety of musical contaminations.

Pop, funk, electro-rock, nu-metal, dance, electro-beat are the ingredients of an explosive mix that will quickly make a name for itself.

Songs like "Soul Wars", "People", "Jump On My Shoulders", "Not Your Fault", "Kill Your Heroes", "Knights Of Shame" summarize in a musical kaleidoscope Rage Against The Machine, Kraftwerk, Mika, Terrorvision, LCD Soundsystem, Hard-Fi, Soulwax, Nine Inch Nails, switching with total ease from hard-heavy atmospheres to pop musical solutions that the authoritative British music critics would not hesitate to call 'catchy'.

Aaron Bruno's recipe is immediacy. And you can definitely feel it here. Destined to become 'best-sellers' we wish AWOLNATION a bright future.

In the meantime, let's enjoy this disc as much as we can, which certainly doesn't pretend to change the world of music, but which is always enjoyable, providing full and complete sensory satisfaction.
