Hey now...here's a weirdo Italian band...not only bringing an eclectic-experimental type of Rock, but also doin' vocals in both English and...Spanish (remember, Italian band!)! But wait, I'm forging ahead of the usual way of things...so let's turn back the clock somewhat...
Pfiew...pretty high-class project, this, being a collaboration between singer Arno Strobl and multi-instrumentalist Déhà. If you have no idea whom those people are, jut read on...
Never To Return is a Namur based band of young Belgian musicians which was started up in July 2009 under its original monicker of Spirit Burns.
As you might now, World In Sound occasionally digs up some of those lost gems in Psychedelic music which have long since been out of print...and one of those gems is this here self-titled album by a group of Detroit based youngsters who recorded the thing back in 1970.
I won’t spend my time on a lengthy, deepening introduction. Check out the .net or the reviews I did on the newest Lethe-album (posted on March 13th 2014) or Manii’s last year’s full length debut (see update January 8th 2013).
Although this so-called Stoner band, based in Bovolone (near Verona in the North of Italy) was officially born in September of 2010, its history goes back to a year prior, when drummer Francesco “Francis Slaves” Schiavi and bassist Umberto Patuzzo along with singer/ guitarist Stefano Carmagnani started the band Jab.
Fake Idols was formed from the union of three bands in the hard rock/metal genre (Raintime, Slowmotion Apocalypse and Jar Of Bones). They found each other in their search for new sounds and have decided to join forces for this new and young project, so you might have it a bit difficult finding any solid info about these chaps.
The Power Trio known as Doctor Cyclops was founded in 2007 in Bosmenso (a really small village situated some 50 km North by North-East of Genova, in the Appenine mountains of North Italy) by childhood friends, singer/ guitarist Christian Draghi and bassist Francesco Filippini (who, if I got the info correct, had already played in another band together, but only went for their own personal tastes in music by forming DC), and drummer Alessandro Dallera.
On November 4th 2013, MDD Records re-released Demilich’s grandiose 1993-album Nespithe. I’d like to refer to the review I did for this re-issue, which was posted on February 8th 2014, for a (short) history of the band.
Crosses (usually stylized as †††) is the musical side project of Deftones frontman Chino Moreno, guitarist Shaun Lopez and Chuck Doom. They al got together in 2011 to form this band. And although they got together in 2011, it took them until now to get their self-titled album released (except for en EP). But what to say about this record….well it’s certainly not something you would expect from Chino.
