One of the most important bands of the Italian progressive rock scene, Il
Bacio della Medusa from Perugia, interrupt a few years silence - "Deus lo
vult" was released in 2012, and recently reissued by AMS Records along
with the other two chapters in the group's discography - with a live album
that returns the energy and the elegance of the band on stage, especially for
those who have never had occasion to see them in such circumstances.
This album, simply entitled "Live", was recorded at the Perugia Art Rock
Festival on October 25th, 2015, on a happily shared stage with the former
historic Le Orme's frontman Aldo Tagliapietra, in front of a large and
sympathetic audience: there it comes a powerful mature and inspired show.
Simone Cecchini's sharp and fascinating vocal interpretation easily flow
across the tracks on winged sandals, masterfully entertwined with Simone
Brozzetti's massive guitars, Eva Morelli's acrobatic flute and saxophone and
Diego Petrini and Caprai Federico's strong rhythm section, now enriched by
the wild and experimental synth sound played simultaneously with the
drums!
Il Bacio della Medusa here offers their own record trilogy best songs, in a
fierce rock context, also renewed and embellished by a thousand details that
will surprise even the most demanding listener.
