ELIAMO - Alternative Universes

From the fusion of American-style rock, poetic singer-songwriter music, and pop that winks at the mainstream audience comes Alternative Universes, the new album by Eliamo.

An album meticulously crafted, from the lyrics to the arrangements.

An album that celebrates change, detachment, and travel.

Indeed, the title refers to the image of a hypothetical world, also the result of a journey, one into time (from the future), undertaken to fix what seemed lost forever.

The entire album contains images of this kind, fantasies and dreams that embellish and animate Eliamo's philosophical reflections on love, relationships, and society.

Through the ten tracks that compose it, one can find themselves catapulted into charged and intense atmospheres, very carefree, or, on the contrary, more melancholic and introspective, dominated by dark lines.

The album opens with Nuclear Explosion, a track that immediately confronts us with a melody that straddles rock-pop and experimental additions.

As happens in love, instead, begins with a calmer atmosphere but remains tense and dark, due to the lyrics and the great expressive ability of the Sicilian singer.

It continues with Genetic Manipulation, a soft and slightly jazzy track that conceals tense lyrics, straddling dream and reality, followed by

Ordinary Delirium, which recalls the more melodic pieces of the "now old" Italian rock bands, aiming to criticize today's society.

Burn (the first single from the album) is one of the tracks where the immense work in sound research is most noticeable, a nostalgic and evocative song.

The Goddess is a melancholic ballad, dominated by piercing strings and a soulful guitar, contrasting with Alternative Universes, much more rock, bright, and radio-friendly.

Return to Nothing is a contradictory song, critical and disillusioned in the lyrics and rhythmic and playful in the sound.

Sweetest Memory guides us towards the final bars with one last burst of imagination, a track where modern singer-songwriter music meets references to more "classic," almost folk, light music.

Finally, You Fall Asleep closes the work in grand style: light yet epic at the same time, perhaps the most evocative and touching song of the album due to the simplicity but at the same time the strength of the images created by the artist.
