Isis, The Austerity Program, Jacob - Live Latte + (BS)


Evening important to tell you, especially for Brescia city but not all: in fact it is precisely in the small town club Milk + ", that is the only Italian date European tour of Isis, accompanied by Bostonians The Austerity Program (my album of the year 2007, see review on this very blog) and the less known Jacob.


course is expected to sell out, not long in coming: one hour before the opening there is already a hint of a queue outside the club, where you meet fans, including ones from southern Italy: "Hello I'm Mark ... Destroyed better known on the site as "very pleased ... ahhhh Criminal are mad, really short, Mario !"... that sort of thing. There are people with a sleeping bag, to witness that we are sons of bitches who are willing to do anything to hear your favorite band live. ..


attack the Jacob (line-up rock-a-typically three) that offer variations on the theme of "Isis": long instrumental branded by low-battery crossing swords with a guitar many effects and diluted share, in short, a sort of modern post-rock to Mogwai (though with less personality) espolosioni devoid of typical Scottish group. Ultimately interesting witty and original with that feeling of melancholy that pervades especially the electric guitar, even though the long run may have problems with range of emotions.


The Austerity Program: to feel that you are out of place, they have punk roots, while Jacob and Isis have their ancestors in the diverse world of metal.

are only two: distorted bass and stinging guitar, then a drum machine that can not be more bizarre. Sometimes I think I hear (and see) Shellac: guitarist (forty?) Is a madman from inside, away from the microphone are mitered (which rarely uses) urging the his partner and himself to go further, further and further. The guitar is inhuman, circular, distorted and full of highs and middle until Exalted.

split, and the public are hardly aware of them and applaud ... truly devastating ... at the end of the amp low Calabresi (yes, Italian-American ...) is cooked.

In response, his companion of neuropsychiatry off the jack of his guitar and puts it in the bottom of the handle, probably disgraced his amplifier and finishing the last piece alone. Undisputed idol.


Isis is phenomenal: just as on disc. Perfectionists sound great manipulators of energy and imaginary space and land to take possession of the stage with their footswitches several square meters. The subtleties of sound are great, the two guitars are cleanly separated, the piano parts accompanying the gloomy melodies, explosions and ancestral rhythms tooliane that made them famous. Perfect mix of heavy matter in hand with psychedelia, grunge and indie. To enjoy them best I close my eyes and listen to them for tens of minutes in this situation ...

Perfect, I'm really enjoying ... guys that night ...
