Quando se escuta o álbum de estreia dos italianos do Case di Vetro, tem em um primeiro momento um choque, afinal o álbum é totalmente composto e cantado em italiano, mas esta impressão deve ser a mesma que os gringos tem quando escutam algo em português, ou em qualquer outro idioma que não seja o inglês.
Conforme "Bon Voyage" vai se desenvolvendo a percepção deixa de ser de espanto e começa a soar normalmente, como uma boa bebida, vai descendo e conforme vão acabando as músicas vai sendo consumido mais e quando se menos espera o disco termina, daí, é reiniciar e saboreá-lo em sua essência, pegar as nuances e entender que o chamado "italogaze" faz total sentido no caso do Case di Vetro.
Mas, o Case di Vetro, na opinião do TBTCI, não é shoegaze, apenas na essência, o fato é que os caras estão muito mais para o Radiohead do que para o MBV, faça você mesmo suas descobertas, mas pra isso é preciso desapegar-se da língua, sinta-a apenas como mais um instrumento. Afinal, essa é uma das essências do shoegaze, não!?!?
***** Interview with Case di Vetro *****
Q. When did Case di Vetro start? Tell us about the history...
Sure! We started in 2012, in Genoa, and for three years we writed songs and played live. In 2015 we chose 5 songs and we published our first EP "Sete" with the help of three labels: Marsiglia Records, DreaminGorilla Records and Wasabi Produzioni. We started to bring "Sete" live but meanwhile we straightaway began to write new songs for our next album. We published "Bon Voyage" this September with label DreaminGorilla Records. Q: Who are your influences?
We have many influences: Foals, Radiohead, Beach House, Sigur Ros and italian artists like Lucio Battisti and Verdena.
Q. Make a list of 5 albums of all time… It's absolutely impossible to answer! There are so many artists we could choose, and we also have different ideas of what changed music history. The only thing we can do is to list 5 albums that we always love to listen and that we consider significant for our idea of music (and of course for our music writing):
Lucio Battisti - Il nostro caro angelo
Mew - No more stories...
Pink Floyd - The dark side of the moon
Radiohead - OK Computer
Youth Lagoon - The year of hibernation
Q. How do you feel playing live?
It's awesome playing live! We love the writing and creating part but stage is absolutely the place where we prefer to be (and where we can play at higher volumes!)
Q. How do you describe Case di Vetro sounds?
We are building our sounds, day by day. We try to ricreate atmosphere with soundscapes coming from shoegaze or post-rock and mix that sound with energy and feelings of a pop/indie song.
Q: Tell us about the process of recording the songs ?
We start in our reharsal room playing and recording with our instrumentation. Sometimes we begin recording a mix and then we work on it, changing, adding or deleting parts, and sometimes we build the song playing live. When we have the final mix of the song we move on a recording studio where we focus on the right sounds.
Q. Which new bands do you recommend?
Klangstof Sophia Kennedy Giorgio Poi
Q: Which band would you love to made a cover version of?
Lucio Battisti
Q: What are your plans for the future?
We have just published our new album so at the moment we wanna focus on live concerts.
Q: Any parting words?
We want to thank you for this interview and we hope your readers love our music. All the best!
