MEDEDELING !!
Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

| Omschrijving | "Out of the Gate" is the first solo album by
Alessandro Corvaglia, the unmistakable voice of
various bands and projects related to the Italian
and international progressive rock such as
Delirium, La Maschera di Cera, Hostsonaten and Mr.
Punch. His career is full of records that
contributed to define the coordinates and the
sound
of the third millennium Italian prog, but all this
still lacked a fundamental piece that would allow
him complete artistic freedom, an exit from those
metaphorical `gates` that until now had limited
its
expressiveness.
Alessandro Corvaglia has always lived music in a
passionate and visceral way, and this aspect fully
emerges in this 10-piece collage, written over a
15-year time span (2006-2020), parallel to his
usual singer/songwriter activity. Therefore, this
is Corvaglia`s definitive opportunity to let off
steam on some current issues, such as the
tragedies
of migrants who died at sea ("Promised land"), the
absurd conflicts affecting humanitarian
institutions by destroying hospitals or other
building structures ("White Ghosts"), cultural and
social barbarism fed by `bloggers` ("Preaching on
line"), all mixed with autobiographical elements
("Where have I been?", "... and the Lady Came in",
"Out of the Gate") and a short visionary journey
("The Night of the Eyes").
"Out of the Gate" sounds like a `70s record
conceived by musicians who, while capable of
composing the most complex of prog-rock suites,
concentrate on melody, the power of simplicity and
the strength of the arrangements instead; it is no
coincidence that the album contains two tributes
to
guitarist Gordon Giltrap (the unreleased "A Deed
within a Dream" and the arrangement of "12
Towers",
a song that Giltrap himself has given to Corvaglia
on the occasion of this album): the essence of his
compositions is clearly evident here, as well as
the influence of the most immediate and `catchy`
cuts written by progressive rock bands such as
King
Crimson, Genesis and Caravan, combined with the
expressive charisma of the ex-Marillion Fish; all
of that exceptionally blends in the eleven minutes
of the ending title track, closing a work full of
shades that surprises with every new listening!
