Radiance Opposition is out now.
With a six piece lineup introducing new singer and songwriter Anna Bassy joining the consolidated team formed by Nicola Caleffi, Luca Giovanardi, Andrea Rovacchi, Andrea Scarfoneand Ulisse Tramalloni, nestled in a visual frame by contemporary Australian artist Zoë Croggon, Radiance Opposition collates an eight tracks cycle that combines psychedelia, electronica and polyrhythms.
“An album that moves between the suspended breath of trip-hop, the ecstatic tension of the most radical psychedelia, and an echo of Andrew Weatherall’s productions, traveling to the circular rhythm of a hypnotic and captivating tribalism - 8/10” (Rumore)
“The voice of the Italian-Nigerian singer Anna Bassy adds a soulful touch to a sound that is well-established yet always innovative and cutting-edge - 4/5” (Il Manifesto)
“Among the most consistent, inspired, determined, and serious standard-bearers of Italian rock - 8/10” (Blow Up)
“A radical and regenerative sonic experience” (Onda Alternativa)
“Simultaneously grounded and otherworldly. Reflective, enveloping, and quietly devastating” (Tits-Upon-Tyne)
“A stunning moody work” (American Pancake)
“Anna Bassy steps forward with a shamanic edge, while the long-running six-piece keep dodging imitation the way they’ve done since the ’90s, pulling disparate elements into one slow-burning vision” (Idioteq)
“A profound rebirth — dense, hypnotic, and courageous in the way it stirs up its own roots to push beyond every boundary. A mature, magnetic, and deeply human work” (MondoRaro)
“A fluid combination of opposites designed to evoke states of consciousness never before so intoxicating” (Rockerilla)
