Spiritual Front - Rotten Roma Casino / Black Edition
Hersteller
Gatefold LP (black vinyl) with printed inner sleeve and protection sleeve
Rotten Roma Casino" (2010) is the follow-up to the seminal "Armageddon Gigolo" album (2006). The album presents the band's unmistakable style: suicide pop with melancholic melodies, stirring guitar chords and emotional vocal parts. But "Rotten Roma Casino" goes even further: The band has reassembled their tried and tested ensemble, including chamber musicians from Ennio Morricone, and once again set off a firework of hits. The album title refers to a metaphorical, decadent Rome of wonder, monstrosity and passion, akin to Fellini's "Roma".
On "Rotten Roma Casino" Spiritual Front deliberately shed their underground roots and create their own variant of morbid folk-pop, which combines indie rock, neofolk and tango into an intense, heartbreakingly sincere mixture. The album is a fresh, original and musically mature work, uncompromising yet catchy, sweet yet disturbing.
