about

Perhaps the most ambitious track on the album, “Look out (consumerism will consume you)” is a song that could be defined as art rock. Close to the more guitar-driven Radiohead, it is the song that gives the album its title (taken from the line “I don't understand now and no more the importance of words”). We are in art rock territory, where melody meets noise, always looking to psychedelic rock. The lyrics, full of nonsense, want to communicate the confusion that can be created in a person’s mind when surrounded by the many (negative) stimuli with which the consumer society bombards us constantly, to the point of losing the meaning of words, which leads to incommunicability.

lyrics

Trembling in a friendly crossbow street I’m feeling downstairs
Look out the world, look out now
Look out the world, look out now
There is something clear but they hide it, I can’t see

I don’t understand now and no more the importance of words
Look out the world, look out now
Look out the world, look out now
Say, that’s something here that’s beyond what I can see

But I’m feeling like the world’s chocking me
Do you feel the lies? They feed you with their lies
They’re affecting me, how could I be free?

Sparkling houses glitter now in here will blast in and off
Look out the world, look out now
Look out the world, look out now
One of the biggest lies is that you are what you buy

And I’m feeling like the world’s chocking me
Feeding me with needs, do I need all this?
And I’m feelingless with my angriness

Like I would
Like I should
Like I could
Like our world

Buy, purchase, take all, obtain; fuck it all, I’m feeling like God
Nothing, I swear, could now hurt me like these thoughts they put inside my head

SOLO Italy

SOLO is a project that ranges between genres: psychedelic music and grunge coexists with indie pop, art rock, shoegaze, electronic music, marching bands, musique concrète.

The leitmotiv across the songs is experimentation (especially on sounds, thanks to a massive use of effects) and by intolerance towards the society in which we live today. ... more
