The Bronson had never been there before, is a nice pub. Ideal for a group like the Horrors and as a capacity like that style.

The young band of Essex English in Italy for a mini tour of four concerts to promote their second album Primary Colours.

The evening is opened by Gliss, Los Angeles trio consists of two boys and a girl, even their second album. The debt to the shoegaze of My Bloody Valentine and some alternative rock year 2000 is obvious. Cute is like all the group members take turns on drums and bass, but sin that cuts showing a bit 'too similar to each other slowly lowering the tone of the performance.

Exchange stage. Perhaps a bit 'too long. You never know if the noises of the public implying uncontrollable anxiety or a bit of discomfort.

But here is the band Faris Badwan enters a super hypnotic and the Mirror Image's first track from Primary Colours. The bassisista Spider Webb (Rhys Webb to the century), the public continues to raise and lower blank stare. For some instant the eyes are only for him.

P1020068 P1020086 P1020072 P1020073 The band divides its shows in two parts. The first is dedicated to Primary Colours and its sound shoegaze and post-punk, if we want a more introspective mood. In this exchange of influences is also associated with a fresh look that sees them less horrorifici and cotton, but this is gossip! This part hit me personally and obviously the New Ice Age grandeur of Primary Colours.

In the second part, divided by the previous by a brief pause, the songs are the master of the first album Strange House, horror punk energy that made them known. Obviously Sheena Is a Parasite on a shoot, though mentioned, pogo.

Proposal is also a cover: Ghost Rider by Suicide.

So many silometri to grind for this live it was worth it. Great energy, wonderful stage presence and would say no, at least for me that is not an insider, technical problem. Congratulations to both the show is proposed for making a second album is not derivative of the second but rather full of new inspirations.
