VICOLO INFERNO – Stray Ideals
Logic Il
Logic records
Do you like
spaghetti western? I think most of us do. We all know they were films made in
Italy, but they seemed more American than the original American movies and
because of that most of us love them. I really do appreciate this talent that
the Italians had to get foreign influence and adapt it in their own culture.
You might ask
why this introduction in the review of VICOLO INFERNO album? It is because
their music has the same analogy with the above mentioned films. Let me be
clearer. Their sound is easy to be described as hard rock with few heavy metal
elements. It is obvious that the band has also a deep bluesy background and of
course you can also find a strong southern rock feel along with some heavy
grooves which remind me a bit of early BLACK SABBATH. It is obvious from the
description of their sound that the band is heavily influenced by the U.S. rock
scene and I am sure that someone will find similarities to musicians like Zakk
Wylde, MOLLY HATCHET and LYNRYD SKYNDRYD. The band though manages to filter
these influences through its own personality and create something original.
The sound of
“Stray Ideals” might not be my cup of tea, but it is an album well worked and
performed and above all it offers a variety of sounds and emotions to the
listener. I think that people who are into the southern/blues hard rock sound
will enjoy this release a lot.
