Redska – La rivolta CD

Third act for the REDSKA, presenting their new album “LA RIVOLTA” (“The Riot”), released in 2012 by One Step Records/Venus in Italy, Mad Butcher Records in Germany and the rest of Europe, and by RedStar73 Records in Spain.The new album includes the whole range of suggestions, influences ad experiences collected during their wanderings around Europe.The lyrics, inspired by the events of these years, are characterized by social and political commitments, with strong stands against fascism, racism, sexism, capitalism and the system which is destroying our planet, against a religious apparatus (mostly catholic) parasitic on the Italian society.Subcomandante Marcos’ words introduce the first track “Sounds of Revolution”, the opening instrumental piece that provides an overview of the sound and power you will find in the CD: a perfect fit of punk, reggae, ska and raggamuffin reaches and carries away the listener into the album.Overall, “La Rivolta” comes across as a varied work both in the lyrics and the songs, but all share a strong sense of struggle and contrast and razor-sharp sentences.

“LA RIVOLTA” is a “true” album, born on the road, where the RedSka express their full potential and their musical, communicative, politic and social commitments.
