Umberto Palazzo e il Santo niente

Umberto Palazzo (formerly of Allison Run and Massimo Volume) led Santo Niente in the mid‑1990s; the project released albums including La vita è facile and Sei na ru mo'no wa na'i, noted for heavy, claustrophobic sounds influenced by US noise/alternative bands. La vita è facile involved production by Marco L.Lega and executive production by Gianni Maroccolo (Consorzio Produttori Indipendenti).

Reviews and credits indicate Palazzo is from the Marche region, spent time in Bologna's 1990s scene, was formerly in Allison Run and Massimo Volume, released La vita è facile (produced by Marco L.Lega, exec. Gianni Maroccolo) and Sei na ru mo'no wa na'i; there were reported disagreements with Consorzio Produttori Indipendenti (CPI) mentioned in reviews.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Umberto Palazzo e il Santo niente's mid‑90s records for their claustrophobic, heavy sound and clear links to US noise/alternative influences. La vita è facile is described as dark and monolithic; Sei na ru mo'no wa na'i is celebrated as a mature, intense follow‑up. Reviews highlight ties to the Marche/Bologna scenes and past membership in Massimo Volume.
