"Arts must not reflect the reality, arts must carve the reality… arts is not a recorder…arts don't record, arts change the world..." (cit. Pierpaolo Capovilla).
Yea!
Today guys I'm gonna talk about one of the most known artists of the Italian underground scene…Pierpaolo Capovilla (born in Venice in 1968).
Controversial, politically active, thinker of music, rock and arts in general as the most powerful social instruments. Famous also for his speech and especially for his voice: so impressive, attractive, different.
He's the leader of two cool projects:
The first is "One Dimensional Man" (Indie-Noise Rock) founded in 1996.
While I'm writing this post, I'm listening to their last album, and… Wow, it rocks! Really... Different from the previous ones and from the past works of Capovilla and company (among them: Giulio Ragno Favero, also founder of Teatro deli Orrori), it's more complete, with new sounds, electronic stuff, synth, in conclusion it seems a new era for ODM has just started! Let's say it's more adult, more mature.
From their last album "A better Man" (June 2011) this is "Fly"!
"Il Teatro degli Orrori"
Capovilla's second project, in my opinion it's a very cool one! The band's sound has been defined Noise Rock; though they try to combine rock music with songwriter style words. So a great focus on the lyrics plus an original music style give the result of a product that makes also people thinking other than only shaking their heads! Capovilla and other musicians founded this band in later 2005 and until now they have published 2 albums: "Dell'Impero delle Tenebre" (2007) and "A Sangue Freddo" (2009). The last one won the PIMI (Italian Prize for Indipendent Music) for the best album, in 2010!
This is "A Sangue Freddo" from the homonymous album!
Stay tuned... PlaySnack!
