LA RECENSIONE


Between pandemics, hardships, live show cancellations, and lack of promotions, although the industry press offered significant support during the past dark two years, a major masterpiece seems to have escaped the attention of the wide Italian (who have unconditionally praised the great Måneskin) and international rock audience, which is RESET by Bachi da Pietra (2021).

Hearing their lyrics articulated in Italian and enhanced by the singing of Giovanni Succi, expressed in a rock that digs into the soul of disillusionment, elevates the work of the duo (on this occasion a trio) to a milestone of this decade, constituting a new and poetic pleasure, perhaps despised by X Factor promoters.

Thus, the Bachi's journey becomes inverse to that of their more famous colleagues, undertaking the journey toward (well-deserved) notoriety in a bottom-up sense.

Punches to the stomach are thrown and spontaneously depicted in a beautiful photographic display (style film "Raging Bull") and without exhausting mimicry; the dense sounds descend realistically, accompanying a wandering, toxic, or cathartic night, upon the unaware heads of those receiving such a skin-stripping sermon in the street.

If only one had the courage to initiate Listening, massive, pop, tangible, dark, and delightful sound solutions in their ability to pierce consciences and generate a kind of mystical passionate counterpoint would be discovered; these would walk the sympathetic nervous system living the thrill of bass strokes (Marcello Batelli) and the riffs, as well as the high-standing syncopations (courtesy of the excellent Bruno Dorella) overflowing with nonconformity and sincerity: truly inline with the rock philosophy, resolutely "karasciò!"

Summary by Bot

Reset by Bachi da Pietra is a profound and poetic Italian rock album that has been largely overlooked due to pandemic hardships and industry trends. The album features emotionally charged lyrics, strong musicianship, and a raw, sincere sound led by Giovanni Succi's vocals. It represents a bottom-up rise to notoriety contrasting with more mainstream acts. Its authentic style and musical tension make it a milestone of this decade in Italian rock. The reviewer encourages a deeper listen to uncover its dark yet delightful sound.
