SUNDAY RECOVERY Coma Mazepa Records 2011 ![]() Alt-rock, eh. The alt part of that usually means shite, and the rock part can only be ironic, due to a severe lack of the rawk. Which is why the world is full of bands utterly devoid of talent or meaning. Say hello to Radiohead, Elbow, Athlete, Arsehole, and all the others who should be beaten about the head with the guitars they make a mockery of. Now say hello to the Italian entry in the Eurokeech contest. Formed in 2009 when main composer Gianluca Cucchiara began working with singer Mirko Petrini and guitar player Fabio Staffieri, they were later joined by drummer Fabio Testaferrata and bass player Emanuele Nazzaro, before setting up camp in the recording studio to set about recording this début album. With world domination the aim, they worked with lyricist Andrew James Whelan on a few tracks to ensure that the international market could sing along to the choruses, while the rain pours down on a festival field. And there is absolutely no reason why the world should not be theirs. They've got the slow-fast-slow-here comes the bridge - swell to an epic finish template down pat, and there are more than enough Radioheady bits to keep the serious rock press happy while the girls get weepy and the lads get beery. If they make a windswept video for 'Lost And Gone', and get some serious MTV Rocks / Q video plays, then it should easily be a chart breaker for them. Over on the arty side, they can channel a wee bit Muse on the likes of 'In Front of You' and 'Side C', both of which happen to feature some guest bass from Porcupine Tree's Colin Edwin. They walk the fine line between populism and art-rock, but never steer to far away from crowd pleasing. If you're a Londoner, you can make up your own mind, when they play some Autumn shows dahn Lahndan way. 24th September – The Purple Turtle 5th October – The Underworld 12th November – The Barfly http://www.mazeparecords.com Edited by zeitgeist, Aug 16 2011, 01:39 PM.
