bar italia - Horsey Girl Rider

And we’re already at two indie rock bands from the UK with the word "Italia" in their name that have released music in 2023 that I'm listening to obsessively.
 
dead moon walking on my grave

Dead Moon - Johhny's got a gun

He wanted to do Rock 'n' Roll since he was a child. He was already around in the sixties with the Lollipop Shoppe, who would even appear on Nuggets, and after a lot of wandering, he began a second life at 40 with his creation - La Luna Morta - alongside his partner and a dear friend. In his music, there’s everything: garage, punk, blues, hard rock, country, psychedelia, even a bit of singer-songwriter style… all rigidly lo-fi… it is said that even in recent times he recorded with equipment that is now obsolete… Fred, one of those characters from the past, far from any mainstream, but to whom every Rocker will always say “thank you”…

I don’t think there are books about him, but on Google there are some stories - at least there were - including a really pleasant interview.

The Frowning Clouds ‎– Listen Closelier{FULL ALBUM}2009
very recent discovery, not judged yet I'm asking for information from @[IlConte]
 
Donovan - Sunshine Superman (Audio)

Asterics' One Hundred Favourites [in random order] (38/100)
 
SAINT MOTEL - My Type (Official Video)
I am a man with a very specific taste
You, you, you are just my type
Oh, you have a pulse and you're breathing
 
🇺🇸 The Gravedigger V – All Black And Hairy (Full Album 1984, Vinyl)
I spent my youth devouring mainly "garage" records and the Smiths, beautifully schizophrenic.
This work raised the line of my love for "garage."
If I then think that these works are close relatives, the game is on. 🇺🇸 The Morlocks - Submerged Alive (Full Album 1987, Vinyl)
 
Plasticland - Wonder Wonderful Wonderland (Full Album)
another band and album that has left an indelible mark on my already liquid psyche.
I don’t mind the subsequent "Salon," considered a misstep by many; instead, I see it as an exploration in songwriting, Prima di continuare su YouTube filling the stills with colorful gelatinous visions increasingly closer to UK's acid psychedelia, making them an ever more fleeting figure in the US psych landscape.
 
Nordbundet

Saw them live yesterday for the second time. And well, you can't fool them.
 
Ryley Walker And Kikagaku Moyo - Deep Fried Grandeur (2021) [Full Album]
I wasn't familiar with this work, a colorful journey on the guitar strings in the style of the freest and wildest Gabor Szabo. A beautiful piece that's out of time and fashion.
 
Plan 9, Keep Your Cool
Plan 9 - The Best Was an Old Tale
Plan 9 - 11th Hour (1984)
Among the albums that have cast colorful shadows in my memory, that is, those considered minor but very important for my musical education.
 
Atmosfear - Free Tonight
Another great white funk record!
 
Dead Moon - Dead Moon Night

Time Has Told Me

someday our ocean will find its shore...happy birthday Nick, wherever you are.
 
L'inimitabibile lista d'ascolto di DeBaser

Oh boy!
I don't know what face he had, not even what his name was,
What voice he spoke with, or what voice he sang with,
How many years he had seen then, what color his hair was...
 
Red House Painters - Medicine Bottle
let's also say enough to having to swallow mediocrity every day and let's go back to producing beauty... for example, in front of a band like this, our dormant sensitivity cannot remain indifferent.
 
Komeda Quintet - Astigmatic [Official Audio]

Asterics' One Hundred Favourites [in no particular order] (37/100)
 
Songs Awaiting Christmas (they've already decorated the tree at my house!)
Like every year, Christmas will come again this year. I'm getting ready, that's the news.
Ruggero de I Timidi feat. Dheborah - Natale al Motel (Video Ufficiale)
And Christmas is also a splendid setting for poignant and steamy love stories (if we have a wonderful example of a real man and the usual pale blonde, even better)!
And @[Falloppio] silent!
