The Profile

Italian artist known in these reviews for radical stylistic shifts: from electronics and minimalism to stripped, abrasive rock and blues-rock, often with intense, poetic, and confrontational lyrics.

From the reviews: “Cambiano Le Cose” is described as heavily electronic/minimal, while later works move toward rock formats; “Exit” (1997) is framed as a harsh, low-fidelity rock album with hallucinatory lyrics; “Below The Line” is a 7-movement noise-immersed suite; “Blank Times” is presented as the latest published work closing an “interbeat” trilogy. Also referred to as “Faust'o”.

Across these reviews, Fausto Rossi is portrayed as a restless Italian artist shifting between stark electronics, noise suites, and stripped-down rock. Highlights include the acclaimed, harsh 1997 “Exit”, the experimental “Cambiano Le Cose”, and the noise-centered “Below The Line”. Recurring themes: freedom, invective against society/power, and a voice that can be both mumbled and explosive. The live account (Concerto 9-12-2005) stresses a minimal-but-solid band setting and a tense, unpredictable onstage presence.
