Campana di Legno

by ZIO CROCIFISSO

supported by

newdawnofprog This album achieves an enviable balance between form and disintegration, where themes go through a considerable number of variations and lines and create an impressive gallery of instrumental interventions. Special attention should be paid to "Lievito Madre (PT. I-V)" where in 13 minutes the composition is presented as a labyrinth that suddenly passes from a devastating sound palette to alternate heavy moments with melodic sections with a brilliant balance. Favorite track: Lievito Madre (PT. I-V).

about

Zio Crocifisso is an Italian instrumental avant-prog band. The character we portray (taken from Verga's novel "I Malavoglia") represents the expression "there's none so deaf as those who will not hear".
We are inspired by bands such as King Crimson, Poil, Melvins, Tool, Zu and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.
This album is the result of the merging of three different approaches to music. Rather than finding a common ground, we tried to merge our ideas to find different and hopefully interesting solutions. Hope you enjoy what we did.

We are currently looking for a label to phisically release this, if you have suggestions/are interested, drop us a line!

Insolubilia

Mysterious, yet nostalgic, Isolubilia is truly an ode to the romance found in the pursuit of a mystery. Musically rich in turbulence and serenity, majesty and humbleness, this album made me feel both lonely, yet understood as an isolated individual. Perhaps we're all fellow romantics, looking up at the same night sky, trying to wring our own meaning out of the stars. I hope that pursuit never ends. The John

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
