Actually, at this point should be a nice article about the heroes of Italian ska-punks "Banda Bassotti" appear, but because the AKA here and here much more detailed and meticulous has done than I ever would have believed, as I am at this Angelegentlich only to the Godfathers of Italian ska with Attitude out because I was recently a band from Marghera (Veneto, northeast Italy) struck, with their album "Combat Circus" not only by her title in the big footsteps of the gang to dachshund Picchio singers seem to kick. The deep north-east of the Italian boot seems a particularly fertile area for young, enthusiastic bands to the protest and the discomfort of the children of the consumer generation want to express loud, but with Talco appears to be a truly outstanding formation found to have the adequate and well highly entertaining success. And since 2001.
Talco CombatSka do so, a quick and cheerful blend of ska and punk; technically played much cleaner - and especially sung better - than the Banda Bassotti itself, with which they are targeting the political divide whose status within the Italian left, but they obviously still need to develop. I think obviously again the most beautiful folk Einsprengsel, fragments from the Sinti and Roma culture, flanked by zirzensischen elements and - not to forget - the songs of the Resistance (besides the obligatory partisan version of the evergreens Bella Ciao is the melody of " Fischia il Vento "in" Il Passo Del Caciurdo "intertwined). Intro tips are the stirring "La Carovana", with "Combat Circus" quickly and cheerfully opened at the Modena City Ramblers ( "Banda del Sogno Interrotto") like "La Sedia Vuota." Who's with Gogol Bordello, Mano Negra and ska-p anything, you should anyway not have problems with Talco.
Overall, Talco for me - you'll forgive my previous ignorance - one of the most exciting new discoveries in the Italian music market. Even if the band in Italy, unfortunately, only a few perceived, the music with a political statement verwinden can, it seems they are in Germany already erspielt a broader fan base to have. And so it is probably also the ednett of schoenetoene already in May it had noted, as I have heard Cockney Rejects. The albums of Talco fortunately you can download for free at Jamendo (the new does not mean it can but on the MySpace page of the band to listen to and download individual tracks). My recommendation: the power, brings the fun into the car, windows down and volume up until the speakers begin to ring. Ideal soundtrack for the politically correct route to the picnic in the surrounding Berlin! I wish that the German Left would be laid times, relaxed, cheerful and danceable present.
Lotta e Allegria, Allegria e Lotta!

I also find the true great pity that they are here in Italy are hardly noticed. Above all, I find Talco musically correct convincingly - the rhythm section is equally hyperactive quickly as precise (and unusual, because punk guitars are actually not, see "l'odor della morte"), the Horns are above (see "11 September ' 73 ") and Dema can lead to all abound even a little singing.
Seriously, as I like ska: cheerful, fast, hüpfbar and with a clear statement against racists and other Faschodreck. Saucoole Left, because where there's something else?

hear thee times amanecio, the new plate of boikot to. they are also not bad. Although not quite as politically expressive, but explicitly antifascist guerrilla and musical. 've facing an interview made. is' pretty good.
The new CD combines punk, ska & Eastern Europe Mucke. The plate is' time for my favorite. you could perhaps also fallen.

nice report
I think that the many Italian bands, the modern beats with traditional songs mix, there are now more than deserves more interested in music from the public perceived to be - both in Italy as well as in the rest of Europe.
That what groups like Mau Mau, après la Classe, Banda Bardo, Chichimecca, Figli di Madre Ignota etc. musical quality to raushauen, is worthy of all honor.
Talco is almost a positive exception, since they probably quite often tours through Germany and is therefore interested parties here at a certain names have made.
But unfortunately, the Italians to become even more on the anglophilen Monotony and the German general known as the soundtrack to Italy only Eros, Tiziano F. Nannini or woman.
Pity, but hardly likely to change.
Particularly galling, I think yes, that the worst ska band of Italy also is the most popular - why all World Banda Bassotti so great, is an absolute mystery to me ... ....

Because the Banda Bassotti not assessed according to their music ... if it is always pure purist would go to the music, would probably Billy Bragg, The Levellers and more NMA also had success in England. So, let us be gracious, if correct attitude also have a positive effect on awareness and perception has. When BB is simply the total work of art for the audience - I think the least would seriously argue that even one of the best bands would be.
What the anglophilen Monotony, it is so clearly not to answer. It is a generation problem, while very young indeed of 14-20 with the same globalized PAMPS from the music industry retort zugemüllt, provides for the dee-generation Ü30 then but significantly different. Yes you can now have Vasco Rossi, Ligabue and Nomadi think what you want - they get their stadiums every continues smoothly if full. They let me but an extensive andernmal from ...

where possible revolutionaries but better music than Banda Bassotti deserve - but because (as I judge from afar can) in Italy watching many bands clearly positioned themselves politically as the German bands - which is probably because that many Italian groups their first experience in the Centers Sociali have collected, which in the past as mushroomed are. It's just a difference whether we as a band constantly in autonomous centers plays or in the premises of the youth evangelical church ... ..

Yes, bands positioned themselves politically clearer than in Germany, I have not seen otherwise. Surely this is the gig locations for garage bands together (add nor the millions of celebrations in July and August, which is also one way or the other political direction will be organized), but Italy is also generally politicized. In the land of Don Camillo Peppone and political disputes have in everyday conversations a totally different role. In addition, a decades-long tradition of strong politically ambitious Singer & Songwriter, which is also the musical climate today to shape and influence (de Gregori, de Andrè, to name but a few ...).
But otherwise you can vote with the majority in a democracy does not make sense to create: if the audience would disrupt the BB, then they would simply not listen. Is not true that there were no alternatives or forced anyone would ...

The dachshund bande I would also mention Skaband only conditionally. there is' a lot more punk in it. ska is relatively new for the dachshund bande. and the ASI Mi Vida (or so was really great) the VECCHI CANI BASTARDI too. and go live from the neatly. therefore, they are liked, I think. Also of course it has, as always, even a little to do with football ...
