Yes Erik, I was intrigued by your comment, especially for the woodwinds section.
I think Periferia del Mondo is another promising band from Italy and their recent third work has pleased me a lot. So when I saw that a copy of this cd was settled on a shelf at Pickup Records it immidiately had to be mine!
Yes, I like the eastern and folky incursion in prog and it would also be interesting if the band increase their keyboards' parts in accordance with their jazzy tendencies. I'm curious to see what they will release next!

Last week I played records by new Italian band iX with Ora Pro Nobis (Musea/Atabal Productions) and Pangea with Invasori from 1976 (Btf.), both sounded interesting and adventurous but too complex for me

BTF is releasing so many obscure bands ...
BTW, finally the official release of Primitive is near, Erik. I fear you won't love this album very much, probably for the too much strong (as you know) Genesis' influence. In a past review (on Vacuum, I think) you said that Genesis' isnpired bands such as The Watch fail to conquer your heart. Not because you don't love Genesis (being your fav band ever) but because Genesis' clones aren't really intreresting.
After all, I hope the powerful mellotrons can please you and even cause you some "goosebumps" feelings!  Edited by Andrea Cortese - April 16 2007 at 18:03 |

A few weeks ago I published a review about the obviously Peter Gabriel Genesis inspired band Sensitiva Immagine and their splendid album E Tutto Comincio Cosi (SEBTP side 3
) in this thread, no reactions at all, what a pity because I love interesting 70-77 Genesis clones like Sensitiva Immagine and Neuschwanstein

^I've seen you recommending Randone's Hybla act pt 1 somewhere Andrea, this is really an outstanding album one of the best i've heard this year sofar
 . i had listened to Ricordo already so i trusted it would be a good one, this surpassed all my expectations though.

Hybla Act 1 is a great album, indeed, Dirk
Nowadays I recommend the third album by Periferia del Mondo. Not at the same level of the latest of Randone, but excellent, in my opinion!

Simona Angieloni, marvellous singer from Aries also from Italy. I'm hoping to hear more from Aries in the future but i guess Fabio Zuffanti is a really busy man with also other projects like La Maschera di Cera, Finisterre and Hostsonaten going on. Btw There is a streaming mp3 of Aries on this site if i'm not mistaken. Check it out

I know I'm a rather obstinate man, but I'm going to re-post this one:
Maybe this could seem too specific, but I just wanted to dedicate some words to Germano Serafin, Le Orme's guitar player between 1976 and 1980. His delicate and imaginative guitar playing has always deeply impressed me, but apart his strong contribution to Le Orme, I don't know anything about his career but his premature death in 1992 (for a car accident? For a severe illness? Sources differ a lot about this). Have you got information about him? Do you want to express your appreciation for a very fine musician?
In particular, I'd like to have some information about the years between his exit from Le Orme (1980) and his death (1992). If you have it...

I know they aren't here yet, but the band Nosound is wonderful. They make absolutely beautiful music. It's very soft and relaxing. Their new album Lightdark is supposed to be coming out at some point this year. I'll be looking forward to it.

From my other closed thread (posted by my friend Andrea Cortese): Days ago I've received a private message from progger evenless, aka Martijn Martens from the Netherlands. He asked me of an obscure contemporary italian prog band "Nosound" and added also the info below:
NOSOUND “Sol "Sol
29" is the debut album from Giancarlo Erra’s NOSOUND project. A
collection of introspective songs and ambitious instrumentals
positioned midway between organic early 1970s Progressive experiments
and contemporary Post-Rock influences that occasionally recalls the
work of SIGUR ROS, PINK FLOYD, PORCUPINE TREE and NO-MAN. The reason NOSOUND should be added is clear. This is prog music to the bone from Official website: http://www.nosound.net DISCOGRAPHY : "Sol
29" is their debut album and therefore their best. They have also
released a PROMO CD-R (2004) and a DVD-R “The World is Outside”. He also told me he already asked for the inclusion. Does some other italian progger colleague knows them?
 From the official website: 2007 Nosound new album:
The band is already added in other prog web sites such as Progressive Ears and Movimentiprog.
I still don't own any of Nosound's records but it all sounds interesting (and yummy). |

Revived because of 2 reasons: this thread deserves to be on the first page and to just mention what great record Uomo di Pezza - Le Orme is
  .
Play the Felona e Sorona cd a lot and forgetting the Uomo cd. Gioco di Bimba always gets me happy and the rest of the cd is just fabulous!!!!!!!
Bye

The Italian band Periferia Del Mondo has released their third album and decided to give it the name of the group so it’s called Periferia Del Mondo but not their debut album. The 10 compositions sound alternating and contain a wide range of instruments. The woodwind instruments (clarinet and saxophone in my opinion) have an important role on this album, they colour the music in a very pleasant way. And you can enjoy lots of interesting musical ideas like a moving clarinet solo and sensitive electric guitar in the swinging titletrack, fiery guitar and an organ solo in the mid-tempo song Ocean, a spectacular synthesizer solo and many soli (including a clarinet inspired by Ravel’s Bolero) in the Mid-Eastern sounding Suite Mediterranea and wonderful acoustic guitar with violin-Mellotron in Charoscuro. And in the song Alghe suddenly there is pure rock and roll guitar with organ and powerful vocals, it’s all possible on this new and interesting CD by Periferia Del Mondo!
