LA RECENSIONE
So....
I find them absurd and beautiful, they are a cross between Bugo and The Strokes, quirky and original.
This Italian band, which I think is better known elsewhere, starts this album with a beautiful riff (Intro) and continues with songs with a jagged punk-rock full of "Angles" as the title says. With choruses that get stuck in your head and even a hammer couldn't get them out (Real Mess), smoldering but not too complex guitars (La Mort), and a really beautiful bass work in some tracks (notably John Rowland), they excite more than some bands that are ultimately all smoke and mirrors (e.g., Doherty with his Babyshambles, Who are you??), and they rediscover a beautiful genre.
I can't wait to go to a concert... I think a 4/5 rating is well deserved.

Hot Gossip pick perfectly, moving with incredible ease between Strokes-like refrains and post-punk drums.
It’s hard to accuse the singer of plagiarism, as he possesses an original, natural voice.
