L’ira del Baccano
are an Italian progish band that I like quite a lot. This is an archive release
of a concert by the band from 2007, back when the band was called Loosin o
Frequencies. These were the first instrumental gigs. The band was quite a bit
more heavy back then but the roots of where the would head can be found.
Doomdance (hear the track below) starts things off with some pretty heavy stuff but also some nice
spacey synths mixed in as well. Susuni
di hascita Celeste starts more slowly and spacey and about 4mins in goes into a
more stoner rock directions. Not a lot of guitar solos happening, most riff
rock but lots of different feelings to the music. Later there is a synths solo
though! 875 is nearly 12mins long and a more melodic rock track to start but it
slowly gains strength and builds up. IT gets quite trippy as they go into a
freaky part and then it gets quite heavy. The kick drum mix is way too much on
this song at times and really annoyed me. Overall, the drums can be a bit too
much in the slow parts. Don Bastinao is the shortest track at under 8mins and
also a bit different, more like classic rock. They borrow a riff from someone
but I could not place it.
Tempus is an 18
min journey with some Black Label Society riffs and grooves at times but mixing
in some synths here and there as well. A lot happens in the course of this
final track on the CD.
There is an extra
18mins (which would have fit on the CD) on the download site and on the vinyl
record. 2 tracks one is a live jam and the other a track from a split digital
EP from 2010.
This is a great
document into the early days of this band. I think you will like it if you are
already a fan of the band.
