Music alone often manages to communicate more than a thousand words put together, and this is exactly what the debut CD by the Sicilians laGrandine does, making their mark in the headlines with a wonderful journey of entirely instrumental post-rock.
7 long and engaging tracks, 7 soundscapes that captivate and fascinate the listener in a way that few bands today manage to do.
Imagine an ideal meeting between Sigur Ros, Slint, Slowdive, and Mogwai... There you go! These are the musical coordinates of laGrandine, but all the elements and ingredients of the recipe are mixed together with such skill to achieve a very original and by no means trivial result.
It's truly a pleasure when bands of such caliber manage to emerge from a scene often stingy and suffocating like the Sicilian one, and in this case, they also do so thanks to the support of an independent label from Messina, Hanged Man Records, quite active in recent years with several other releases under its belt.
The CD can be listened to in its entirety HERE and purchased HERE, and at a time like this, when Italian "artists" seem to be starting to care more about form than substance, approaching laGrandine is one of the best gifts you can give yourself.
