Intervallo present a reissue of Narassa's Guerra E Angoscia, originally released in 1973. Like Gerardo Iacoucci -- already celebrated twice by Intervallo with Simbolismo Psichedelico (2015) and Industria N. 1 (INTER 011LP, 2018) -- Narassa, real name Sandro Brugnolini, is back in Intervallo's catalog with another gem: his second release on the legendary Rome-based label Rotary, which came out after the amazing Tensione Dinamica (INTER 005LP, 2016). Guerra E Angoscia was born as the fifth installment of seven and, like the previous album (which was recorded with the collaboration of label boss Amedeo Tommasi, the mind behind every release on Rotary), moves away from the experimental and mechanical drift of the first chapter, to dive headfirst in a dark and heavy mood -- as the title suggests ("War And Distress"). Guerra E Angoscia is truly faithful to the topic of its title -- with tracks like "Rommel", "Minaccia Di Guerra", "Campo Di Sterminio", "Commandos", "Battaglia Tragica", "Beat Bellico", "Eruzione", and "Linea Calda" -- there's little room for misunderstanding. It does a brilliant job offering library music to evoke tragedies, dark times, and the madness of human kind. This is done with wonderful beats, sharp and powerful percussions, grievous rhythms, and dramatic string sections. No more dynamism, to quote Narassa's other release on Rotary: "here the tension is just the effect of explosions and wrecked nerves." Edition of 300.
