LA RECENSIONE
It's like closing your eyes and going back in time.
Tie an enemy to a chair and play this record; after a few minutes of listening, ask them around what year this sound hovers, in what year could this record have been recorded, with a margin of error of 10 years, and finally tell them that if they are wrong, they will die; let me tell you, one less enemy, they will never say it's from 2011, they will declare it's late 60s early 70s, they will say it's Syd Barrett's cousin, they will be wrong!
All this to tell you that Sic Alps with "Napa Asylum" have created a retro sound that takes us back, seems recorded in a garage (and I wouldn't be surprised if it were so) the record overflows with intensity, and tense and sweet at the same time, there's that touch of psychedelic dust that makes the sound warm, neither too hot nor too cold, everything in life should be warm without impact but just facts, everything in life should be like this record.
In conclusion, I say that with "Napa Asylum" the kids of the noughties will have the opportunity not previously granted to them (that is, to live in the 60s and be hippies) to say: with this record, I'm "traveling"............ I close my eyes and see thousands of coLoriSD.
