FLASH: DIASTOLE – GLI INCUBI DI FREUD

L
Gli Incubi di Freud - Diastole

A critical rock, a precise and catchy flow, all in Italian, and deep guitars, clearly Gli Incubi di Freud is ready to fight on Diastole. Review.

DIASTOLE – GLI INCUBI DI FREUD

Leader Carismatico opens it all with a critique of politics and influencers that’s both violent and satisfying. Each line of the chorus comes in like a blast of punches. The forecast for the mosh-pit announces the rhythm is slowing a tad though on E Poi Non Ridi Più, smiling and yet hurt, and also more pop in its attitude. Gli Incubi di Freud then flirts with controversy in the aggressive and torn apart Un vero uomo. Telling the story of a toxic relationship from the abuser’s point of view is a massive risk. Musically, it does sound like a villain’s theme. There’s a rage here, but it’s not as cathartic as I thought it’d be. It’s a strange feeling, intriguing and well-produced.

In a calmer instant with Il cuore di Icaro, the band shows its range and adaptability as it goes into an old-school kind of rock. The rhythm then picks up again with Il vaso di Pandora which goes straight forward and is described as a raw and honest revenge song. Opening Pandora’s box shakes the world with these riffs. It’s a quake also felt through the two voices, responding to each other with passion. And later through the art and prog-rock inspirations that calm the epic and hard tone of the first half of the EP.

Lastly, Diastole is closing on the softest track, Tum, also out of space and time, and the most experimental of this record. The journey is proposed through its sweet piano as much as through the placement in space of the instruments, in stereo. It’s a track I highly recommend listening to with headphones. Overall, it’s a harmonious record, even with so many different influences. Gli Incubi di Freud is a band to get into for its musical honesty, and Diastole, for its poetic passion.
