Before I run off to watch Inter, I renew the #zot2016 review with a proposal that's all Made in Italy.

1997EV - Love Symposium Alien Spider (Boring Machines)

This time I’m suggesting an Italian album. The artist in question is 1997EV, the moniker of Andrea Ev, a Sardinian artist and musician who, with this album titled 'Love Symposium Alien Spider', released last year by the Treviso label Boring Machines, pays homage to his homeland through a series of vigorous psychedelic drone compositions. We move from the Sonic Boom reverberations mixed with Suicide-like hallucinations in the eleven minutes of 'DrySun Acid' to the Amorphous Androgynosus electronics of 'Post-Organic Lullaby' and 'Sleepstone', the psychedelic ballad 'Oceanic' and the ritual drone of 'Magnetospleen' and 'Ologramatic', right up to 'Black Christine', which indeed recalls that thrilling cinematic vibe of John Carpenter's 'Christine'. Truly a great album. Highly recommended.
