Mercury Rev @ Teatro Moderno – Savignano Sul Rubicone // September 13, 2018

+ Herself

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Dopo avere inaugurato a Milano le quattro date italiane, gli americani Mercury Rev arrivano a Savignano per festeggiare i vent’anni di Deserter’s Songs , a detta di tutti il loro album capolavoro.
Deserter’s Songs è il quarto disco dei Mercury Rev, uscito nel 1998 a sette anni da Yerself Is Steam , il loro disco d’esordio.
Successivamente pubblicheranno tra alti e bassi altri quattro album, varie raccolte ed una colonna sonora, ma Deserter’s Songs rimarrà il picco della loro carriera.
Questo capolavoro “dream pop” è arte. L’inconfondibile voce di Jonathan Donahue, canzone dopo canzone ci guida nel suo mondo, fatto di pura magia.
Un concerto intimo con un meraviglioso Teatro a fare da cornice ad una folla incantata da melodie quasi fiabesche. Canzoni fuori dal tempo, come in un racconto medievale denso di suoni e strumenti.
Erano i primi anni 2000 quando un amico mi fece ascoltare questo disco, chiusi gli occhi, perdendomi in quelle melodie, in quella bellissima Opus 40 , forse la mia preferita.
E questa sera è stato come riaprire gli occhi dopo vent’anni.

Tears in waves minds on fire / nights alone by your side

ed è subito pelle d’oca.

Ringrazio come sempre DNA Concerti ed i ragazzi di Retro Pop Live per l’accoglienza.
