ORTOPEDIC QUARTET-Fratture-(Self Released-Italy-2013)

Great cd by this amazing band from Caserta (Southern Italy),  I have already posted their live tape recorded at Tien`A` Ment Squat in Naples on the 8th of June 1996.

They re-formed in 2013 just to re-record some of  their tracks in a proper studio recording.

Therefore in this totally DIY Cd-r,  you `ll find 4 tracks, from that tape, completely  re-recorded and 2 more tracks from the same tape re-elaborated in a studio!

Very good musicians playing a sort of crossover mixing Jazzcore with some personal rock and funky/swing passages.

As far as I know, they have not distributed this cd, there are only a few copies around given away as a gift to close friends.

For all the lovers of creative muzik.
Enjoy it.

v.a.-MINUTEMEN WROTE PROPAGANDA SONGS-(Cracks In The Sidewalks-Italy-2002)

Miming the famous Minutemen song "Bob Dylan wrote propaganda songs" this Italian label released this great compilation, with only Italian bands covering the music of the famous American punk band.

The result is quite astonishing. Free jazz mixed with a good dose of punk going towards different dimensions, the genius arrangements eventually finish a sincere and real tribute cd. 
Those bands nailed it, simply.

It came out with an A5 size b/w fanzine, each band has a page where you`ll find graphics, address, line up and info(all the relevant scans included here).

A great sampler for all the lovers of The Minutemen.

Enjoy it.
