FatDog: New Found Land

by Alberto Bazzurro
December 26, 2014

Musicisti scandinavi e britannici convergono in questo sestetto, che perlustra spazi folklorici di chiara matrice nordeuropea. L'impatto iniziale è molto felice, poi ci si assuefa un tantino, e l'eccessiva presenza di episodi vocali (spesso ripetitivi) contribuisce a smarrire, ad appiattire un minimo le ottime risultanze (e sensazioni) iniziali. Gli episodi più convincenti coincidono ...

May 11, 2007
