THE REVIEW

Anno domini 1996.

Gian Maria Accusani, a young lad from Friuli, manages to release his first punk album, this "Testa plastica," together with his band, Prozac+, which includes himself on lead guitar, his girlfriend Eva Poles on vocals, Elisabetta Imelio on bass, and a mysterious Simon on rhythm guitar.

It's a good debut, made of that pop punk, still a bit unripe, which in two years will explode into the national (and international?) success of "Acidoacida."

Even from this album, however, GM's beloved themes, like drugs, social maladjustment, and existential loneliness, are already evident.

The very catchy single "Pastiglie" will lead the album to good sales results and some interviews on MTV.

A good debut, ultimately, suitable for lovers of well-played and equally inspired pop punk.

Summary by Bot

Testa Plastica, released in 1996 by Prozac+, marks a solid debut of young artist Gian Maria Accusani and his band. The album combines pop punk energy with early explorations of themes such as drugs, social maladjustment, and existential loneliness. The catchy single "Pastiglie" helped gain media attention and good sales. Though still somewhat unrefined, it foreshadows the later success of their follow-up album Acidoacida.
