Whew. This is
so far removed from the world of commercial music in
2016 that it'd be hard to top this band in that respect. If you get tired
of all the canned perfection crap out there that all sounds the same (and
you can always predict what note or chord will come next),
Elves, Red
Sprites, Blue Jets might just snap you back into reality. This Italian
band records music that some folks might mistake for practice or jam sessions.
To be certain,
Inutili is a band that does
not sound like
all the rest. But what's surprising here is how musical some of these excursions
into spontaneity can be. The vocals are particularly unusual. Instead of
being tweaked to perfection, the voice is presented as something of an accidental
element...with the words being barely discernible. Some of this reminds
us of some of the stranger German progressive bands from the 1970s...but
not really. Sure wish more modern rock bands would take as many chances
as these guys. This music is unusual, unpredictable, exciting, and decidedly
RAW. Gripping and bizarre. Love it. Top pick.
