Are Dead Mice In Wall B

Dimartino live @ live @ Catania Catania

I must confess that they are not among those who welcomed "Dear teacher we lost," the new working Dimartino .

I've never been a fan of Famelika and I was rather indifferent before the change in their Dimartino. This is an album, their, very well received by critics and the public of aficionados. An album that left me rather unmoved, while recognizing in some great artistic peaks.


I tried to go to their live stripped of any preconceptions about them, eliminating all my previous criticism and try to assess their performance exclusively on the stage. As it should be. I must admit that it was a much anticipated concert in Catania, but penalized by the monumental feast of St. Agatha that has virtually paralyzed the entire center and caused many defections.

on stage is certainly the presence of Simona Norato what stands out most, with the elegance of the movements made even more fascinating by the naturalness with which he can switch between keyboards, guitar, percussion and then also to the xylophone and accordion. Certainly, the backbone of the music of Dimartino, he can find his epic explosion in "Wanted soul," the most beautiful song with the refrain of the last years of music production. Yet the public is heard commenting: " The sounds of the keyboard are fantastic . We then move on to intimacy stage presence of Antonio Di Martino and exuberance contrasted Just currents to the battery. In his argument on stage salt also Cesare Basile, who took care of their artistic production, to accompany them live in "The Ballad of fashion," included on the album cover of Tenco.

The distruttivistica "I burn my bottom", the legacy of their past musical life, best represents what has been their growth and the transition from the angry Famelika, the conscious artistic maturity of Dimartino. Not a clean break with the past, more than anything else is like look at a picture of young people.

" singing I could die," says Antonio on the stage and the audience anticipates every word of every verse showing, better than any review could do, that their album is really able to reach the ears of the public.

Although some passages look a bit 'too Rino Gaetano must be admitted that it is live that you can not appreciate their music, despite the size of "literary" that can make listening to their cd.

Regardless of personal taste this is definitely a band talented musicians who have decided to dare and who have succeeded in what is the main business of those who go around to promote their album: love to be able to do so.

And I, even though I was strenuously opposed it, now I sit here writing this report with their disc repeat in the background.
