Rating: The Italian hard rock scene, though attacked from various angles and by genres that share with the musical world only the background noise, always has some cards to play. Nowadays, with hard rock contaminated by foreign agents undermining its integrity, the reclusive Mimmo Parisi continues his journey and promotes a new single of Italian hard rock. The singer-songwriter certainly has honesty and fidelity to rock, two of his strengths. No different from McDonalds's Angel – his single released and presented last March – the sounds of the new work tend to serve as a stylistic bastion towards, or versus, the aforementioned infiltrating agents that, at least sometimes, tend to create, in forced experiments, a sort of fruit salad of styles. In other words, not always rock and samba, for example, and in the name of a combination under the banner of "let's come together to create a surprise," truly leads to something valuable. Sometimes and often this method leaves everyone dissatisfied. Fans of rock and those of samba. Unless we're talking about the legendary and historical Santana or, but only on some occasions, the first-generation Italian Litfiba. Specifically, regarding the CD release, 'Ce la possiamo fare' reaches more than satisfactory quality levels. Special mention goes to the singing that Mimmo Parisi lets float in the medium/high register. Just as well-crafted is the guitar solo that follows the special section of the lyrics: a soloistic evolution rich in feeling that impacts a solid work of drum/bass rhythms. "Ce la possiamo fare" is a song, there's no doubt about that; however, it carries, at least at the title level, a strength that recently seems to have been lost in the depths of superficial pessimism. Sure, "Ce la possiamo fare," is just a cliché, perhaps overused. However, we ask, did not good Sigismondo (for friends, Freud) build a new science precisely on the verbal? Anyway, encouragement helps. Always.
Ananalytical citation deserves the opening of the song: "We can do it even without them/Those with a fridge full only of gold". In this metaphor, taken directly from everyday life, it is sufficient to change some key terms (them = those who definitely have no economic problems; fridge = bank), and the songwriter's thought reveals itself with clear definitive clarity, Parisi demonstrates relentlessly his convinced attitude aimed at an autarky that promotes individual maturation: no yielding to kneeling before the god of money. Whatever happens, 'Ce la possiamo fare'.
