Rating: Second album for the emerging (but by no means beginners) Eskaloska, a very professional fusion band.
Composed of Devis Annibaldi (vocals), Marco De Santis (guitar), Paolo Martini (accordion/keyboards), Camillo Buratti (bass), Giuseppe De Simone (trumpet), and Samuele Serangeli (trombone, and a close relative of the undersigned...).
The mastermind behind the project is the singer Davis Annibaldi alias Eskaloska, who is the author of almost all the songs on the record. A very curious aspect of this album is the use of the Rieti dialect as in the song "U Paesanu Curiusu", in honor of the group's place of origin. Indeed, already from the third track, one immediately perceives the village atmosphere, which envelops much of "Menti Astratte," perhaps precisely due to the title "Uè Paisà", which talks about how quiet and monotonous life flows in a small town.
The album consists of six tracks; of note is "Un giorno nero", which is the song that represents them the most, characterized by a very reggae, lively and catchy chorus. Detailed and intelligent arrangements, and the quality of instrumental execution is very good, as is the recording quality, thanks to the well-known record label "Blond Records", which has also produced IV Luna, AA. VV, S.O.S and others.
Not to be missed!
