Popis - GALLIPOLI 1915 E LE..:
Another double OLBM CD that testifies the remarkable work carried out within the New Wave phenomenon by Viridanse (from Alessandria, Piedmont) between 1983 and 1987. Despite its brief existence, the group still managed to make its mark in a time when the world of music was teeming with bands. Influenced by the English and Florentine New Wave scenes, Viridanse debuted with a split-cassette tape shared with The Art of Waiting. In 1984, Contempo Records produced their 12" EP Benvenuto Cellini and - the following year - the album Mediterranea. During this period the group got favorable reviews from all the major Italian music magazines and often performed live around North and Central Italy. In 1987, after breaking-off with Contempo, the band produced a new demo tape entitled Psycho Session before disbanding the following year. The first CD of this collection contains the EP Benvenuto Cellini with the addition of seven songs recorded live in Alessandria in July 1984. The second CD offers the entire album Mediterranea and a selection of four songs from the Psycho Session recorded in 1987. With nothing to envy of their contemporaries Litfiba and Diaframma, Viridanse have produced a very interesting repertoire; listening to this collection we notice a versatility that goes far beyond the usual New Wave schemas, with musical influences that range from funky to progressive, to rock, with a vaguely psychedelic imprint.
