Authors of a remarkable debut ("I soldi sono finiti," remembered for its cover with a real €1 coin attached and the technical sheet in the booklet detailing all the costs incurred for the album's production), the Ministri return to our ears with an EP of only 4 tracks, fresh from their new contract with Universal (is it happening like in the '90s, when major labels started signing many acts from the underground???), 4 shards of daily and raw reality about facts, the right to have a home, a generation without a shred of courage, and those who worry about how to do something rather than thinking about what they are really doing.
"La piazza" is, among the 4 tracks, the one most open to melodic solutions while the others represent the classic Ministri sound, a rock without compromises with a touch of punk moods like the first single "Diritto al tetto (paga l'affitto e poi vestiti a lutto quando hai capito quanto va giù il bozzo)" or the beautiful "Fari spenti (Finisce qui al giornata delle buone azioni/di chi si butta nel lago per fare l'eroe/ma si concentra più sul tuffo)"; "Meglio se non lo sai" can be easily considered a filler.
The Ministri have talent. They have what it takes to succeed in this bleak Italian music scene. They truly deserve it. We are waiting for the new album to reconfirm these ideas.
