THE REVIEW

Here are the post-pandemic records. This and more is mind-blowing. An album that brings back the anger, frustration, and anguish of one of the darkest periods since the war. And you don't need to be in New York City or Berlin to feel these things. It's enough to be from Lanciano, Abruzzo, Italy. It's the place where the four guys from SantøSpirito experienced this horror. From here, everything is clear. The dystopia depicted in Hollywood films is here. SantøSpirito's reaction? An album as tense as a violin string. Noise from a sonic generation, post-wave melancholy, sonic outbursts with a stoner rock vibe (especially Queens of the Stone Age, see the beautiful closing song, "Abisso"). This is the result in notes. But there are also the lyrics. Very intense lyrics, with what is said and unsaid helping the band narrate this "delirium." The epitome of this beautiful combination of edgy rock and song form can be found in the wonderful "Giovani di adesso," the least noise track, an electroacoustic ballad of emotional intensity and generational anthem (we hope it will become one).
