Italian pop-punk act Slenders has revealed a video for “Nastya”, second single taken from the album “Angry Youth”available NOW via This Is Core and directed by Luca La Barbera.About the song, the band says: “This song is about love, of that particular intense youthful love but which, like a match, is consumed in a moment. Love is a fundamental part of youth, and it is perhaps being so passionate to make us so angry at injustice. We wanted to get excited, and we chose to talk about a girl in a video where the music and the emotion of the concert are sovereign”.
Riflesso are Italian hardcore punk band from Cagliari and I listened and reviewed for our zine their debut e.p. out on Blacktooth Music.
The music these guys play is fast, emotional but melodic hardcore punk that reminds a lot of the 90-ies bands like Trial, Abhinanda, Racial Abuse and similar bands. There are 5 songs on this record. The lyrics are in Italian language and I can˙t understand what they are singing about, but the band says the lyrics are more on introspective and personal side. What I personally like about this record and this band is how they managed to combine old school Italian hardcore punk vibe with more American and Swedish hardcore scene influences to make one perfect picture and awesome debut. I am eager to listen to the full record once it comes out, because I am sure it will be just awesome.
