from the Ep "Glidin' Off" (Electric Eye Records)1987
This is certainly the best of the current crop of Italian bands that I've heard thus far; there's twelve minutes of exciting psycho-drama spread thickly over three tracks. For a three piece band they create a very full sound with Curadi's vibrant guitar buzzing, stinging and generally pervading every inch of precious vinyl. Whilst this record could easily be mistaken for the out-pourings of some time-shrouded acid crazed combo of the late 60's there is a bizarre Mediterranean tinge to, particularly, "Dreamin' Demon" which brings some sense of originality yet the track itself sounds like a heady mixyture of a Sergio Leone western film score and the Yardbirds' "Heart Full Of Soul." Fascinating. To sample the current fledgeling Italian scene I can think of no better place to start.

Texas Heavy Blues/Sludge Rock Band 'Mountain Rag': "Moonlighting Man" from "Of The Southern Plains Ep" released 17.08.2015 https://mountainrag.bandcamp.com/

Mountain Rag - Moonlighting Man

“Pearls At Swine” is the new album of The Strange Flowers, to be released on June 15 2015 by Area Pirata Records. It comes after a 20-year carrier spent speaking all tongues of psychedelia, a term that in the case of the Strange Flowers indicates an attitude more than a style. In the Strange Flowers of “Pearls At Swine”, dilatations, even if still present, leave room to the fairy visions of paisley-pop, to the irony of beat, to the impetus of garage-rock, all dressed with the new sound given by a line up that now includes Rhodes bass and organ.
On tour beginning in May 2015.
