about

"Registrato tra il 2020 ed il 2022, “Paper Tiger/Atomic Teeth” è un concept album che esplora il vasto immaginario della Guerra Fredda ibridando strutture post-rock con sonorità psichedeliche. I brani, anche attraverso l’uso di campionamenti vocali, ripercorrono ora le tappe della corsa allo spazio, ora i conflitti politici e ideologici che dilaniavano due modelli di società diametralmente opposti tra loro. Il crollo del muro di Berlino, lo scoppio delle bombe atomiche su Hiroshima e Nagasaki e la controversa amministrazione Reagan diventano l’occasione per riflettere su tematiche quali il nazionalismo, la guerra ed i confini che dividono i popoli, colmando la distanza tra il passato ed il presente, nella convinzione che, forse, la Guerra Fredda non sia mai realmente finita."

"Recorded between 2020 and 2022, "Paper Tiger/Atomic Teeth" is a concept album that explores the imagery of the Cold War, merging post-rock structures with psychedelic sounds and the use of vocal samples, through which the songs retrace the steps of the space race and the political and ideological conflicts that tore apart two contrasting models of society. The collapse of the Berlin Wall, the explosion of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the controversial Reagan administration become an opportunity to reflect on issues such as nationalism, war and the borders that divide people, bridging the gap between past and present, in the belief that, perhaps, the Cold War has never really ended."
