The third album by Diaframma represents a further shift in their music.
There is a progressive detachment from the dark sounds they started with, creating a beautiful blend between punk and singer-songwriter rock. Although not as good and varied as the previous "Tre Volte Lacrime," it features good songs, starting with " Dottoressa," "Caldo," and "Un Temporale in Campagna" (the latter song which most closely approaches certain twilight moods of the beginnings) and the reggae of "Marta." The singing of Miro Sassolini appears even more baroque and always steals the show (unfortunately, this will be his last album with Diaframma).
This album also holds historical significance as it is the first in which Federico Fiumani tries his hand at singing (in the already mentioned "Caldo"). His voice here still appears strained but will soon gain greater awareness of his capabilities. In the CD edition, the album was re-released with the addition of four frankly unexceptional songs.

"Boxe because it contains struggle, charm, a sense of precariousness, the desire for redemption from a messed-up life, a deep sense of loyalty and humanity."
"It makes you unleash, shout and dance, but also reflect, sing and be moved."
By Ben-Kenobi
"Punk is the true love of Federico Fiumani, a controlled punk that never goes to excess."
"'Boxe' is a real burst of energy, a refusal to passively suffer a defeat."
