Amity in Fame - Amity in Fame - Dinner for One [Album of the day]

Dinner for One is an album from Amity in Fame. This product is well recorded, the sound is very clean, and all the production sounds very professional. Dinner for One's music is similar first of all to the mood of Amorphis' "Elegy". The dark, folkish atmosphere is built, in Amity in Fame music, by a dark acoustic guitar and the impenetrable pact battery-bass. The male voice (sometimes completed by a female choir) is something between Tool's and Soundgarden's. The ethereal ann psychedelic touch in some moments recalls Porcupine Tree's darkest moments too.
Dinner for One is made by cryptic, martial songs and it enters the top chart of Jamendo's gothic-folk albums

Blue Haired Girl - Uterus [Song of the day]

We had already talked about Blue Haired Girl. This band is similar to Tortoise, Dirty Three, June of 44. The song I want to suggest, today, is built over an acoustic guitar riff and a lazy, lo-fi recorded speech. The xilophone that run after the melody add a bit of a magic mood.

Lato - Space and Time [Song of the day]

Last post was about this really nice italian psychedelic post-grunge band. Last song of the day a bit of a melancholic song. Today I want to share a happier song.

Space and time has a splendid (and not isolated...) intro, perfect to start a party, or a travel. There are still some contemplative moments, expecially in the final stages, but this seems to be Lato's trademark.

So, just push play and let the psychedelic party begins!

Blue Haired Girl - Morricone [Song of the day]

Blue Haired Girl is an indie-pop band. If I had to tell you some similar artist, I would say June of 44, Tortoise, Dirty Three.

But their mood is really original. In "Morricone" a simple, whispered melody knocked between strings, xylophone and guitars creates epic but gentle atmospheres.
