Biglietto per l'Inferno - Vivi. Lotta. Pensa (2015)

BIGLIETTO PER L’INFERNO returns to the scene of Prog (and more…) with a new album, suggestively entitled “VIVI. LOTTA. PENSA.” (Live. Fight. Think.).Once again the band’s effort focuses on the recovery of the old Biglietto’s tracks from the ’70s, in particular from their second LP “Il tempo della semina”; the tracklist also includes the brand new song “Narciso e Boccadoro” and “L’amico suicida”, the latter taken from the legendary eponymous 1974 record.For those who mind about definitions, this is the band’s maturity record, of those intentions already revealed in their previous effort “Tra l’assurdo e la ragione” and now brought to completion through a long process of elaboration and improvement: the sounds mix, the most varied timbres and the individual musicians’ diversities come together in an even more full and harmonious way, in the re-creation of a new ambitious product that aims to realize and actualize the meaning of the word “PROG”: music that goes on, progresses, matures and does not only look back.

Listeners will judge value of Biglietto’s music; that of the presentation will be immediately evident instead, thanks to Marco Menaballi’s work, who interpreted the album title exhortation with a powerful and robust graphics, giving this product an added value and an overwhelming visual impact.

Italian progressive rock band, originally from Lecco (north east of Milan) and existing circa 1972 to 1975. They had a heavy style at the start moving to more complex and multi-keyboard based spacey prog later. Before their demise they were to be signed up in Germany with production from Klaus Schulze, yet all that came of that friendship were later solo albums by Biglietto's Baffo Banfi. In 2007 Biglietto Per L'Inferno reformed as an acoustic band with the name Biglietto Per L'Inferno.Folk.
