Description
Bio from Prog Archives:
The idea for UNREAL CITY was hatched in 2008 by keyboardist/vocalist Emanuele TARASCONI and guitarist Francesca ZANETTA, the line-up later completed with the arrival of Francesco OREFICE (bass) in 2010 and Federico BEDOSTRI (drums) a further two years after that. A self-released EP by the Parma-based outfit in 2012 brought them to the attention of Italian prog lord Fabio ZUFFANTI who was subsequently involved in the production of the band's recent debut album ''La Crudeltà Di Aprile'' (2013) for Mirror Records. The young members of UNREAL CITY project something of a retro-modern image and their music also enjoys the best of both old and new. The tracks on ''La Crudeltà Di Aprile'' display a similar present day consciousness but they do so with reference to the traditional RPI creed. That epic tradition manifests itself through typical Italian lyricism and the unrestrained expansion of lavish arrangements adorned with Mellotron, Moog, church organ, violin and lute. The texts scrutinize dark themes of psychological conflict (the trauma of Oedipal separation, corruption, the mediation between the conscious and unconscious realms) and draw inspiration from encounters with shadow forces (Faust, primitive deities, witches' Sabbaths) although these related stories ultimately present a narrative of personal growth. The lyrical themes also seem to release the collective imagination of the band and the end result is a phantasmagoric Italian Symphonic Prog with a dark gothic bias. Looking at UNREAL CITY in the context of new Italian groups it might not be too much of a stretch to describe them as the archetypal modern RPI band, and ''La Crudeltà Di Aprile'' is an absolute must-have for fans of the genre. Currently available in CD format and to download/stream via their bandcamp. - seventhsojourn Unreal City Home Page http://unrealcityprogband.bandcamp.com/ Related Torrents
