Preferisco rimanere un’impressione
Preferisco le impressioni
Le impressioni emozionano
È inutile conoscere

I’d rather remain an impression. I prefer impressions. Impressions cause emotions. It is useless to know (Vinicio Capossela,  ‘Non si muore tutte le mattine‘, novel 2004).

NIRVANA

US GRUNGE ROCK ..1991

Nirvana reaches an apex with its LP ‘Nevermind’ (1991) and its world hits Polly, Lithium and Smells like teen spirit. The band becomes the most famous ambassador of grunge rock, a music style that developed in Seattle (Washington, USA) as an upsurge of American alternative rock. Nirvana publishes 60 songs in 5 years between 1989 and 1994, and disbands upon the suicide of its frontman Kurt Cobain at the age of 27. The Nov. 1993 ‘MTV Unplugged’ performance delivers delightful acoustic versions of Nirvana’s best themes. The last song recorded by Cobain initially remains unedited and is published only 9 years later.

TALK TALK

UK synth-pop, new wave and post-rock…. 1982-1991

Formed in 1981 in London, Talk Talk began delivering superb synth-pop and new wave on their 1982 and 1984 LPs. They went on with extraordinary music on their 1986 album ‘The colour of Spring’ and finished with two albums of beautiful but unmarketable music in 1988 and 1991. Recall here that their 1984 music video ‘Such a shame‘ is one of the most exhilarating clip ever produced and their 1986 ‘Time it’s time‘ one of the greatest music track ever.
