Trowel Size For 1/8 Tile

Interview with Marta Sui Tubi
















Sure, Marta sui Tubi are not exactly a band able to sit still for long. As reflected in the more than 100 tour dates Sushi & coca following the release of the last self-titled album in late 2008, culminating with a stop in Sardinia in the Summer Grooves Sarroch cooperative organized by Vox Day, scheduled this Thursday at Villa Siotto Sarroch (in hours: nonsense). Witness the fact that this year the band has felt the need to "break the abstinence new song" - in the words of John Gulino, lead singer of Martha - and come out with a new single which is a starter on the new album, which still has no release date but which have been registered so far a dozen pieces (four or five already are presented in person). The song is titled Without a network, was released only on the web - you can buy it on iTunes and various online stores - and that song was also made a video clip shot by Ence Faithful and Corrado Lorenzo Vasquez available, of course, also on YouTube. "This is a song very cool, disengaged, pop, Marta Sui Tubi much musically but more carefree lyrical level," says John. "There seemed to make perfect a summer song, quiet, not going to represent us in the mind thoughts too complicated. " It is a track that accentuates the rhythmic side of the Sicilian band but retains within itself the traces of what has become the "brand" of Marta Sui Tubi, a very sophisticated and complex approach to the arrangements and song structures (in some ways almost "prog" and not look like a dirty word) mediated by an impact rock that is exalted above all live. From his debut as a duo almost just voice and guitar (that of Carmelo Pipitone) to the battery Ivan Paolini, until new enty Paolo Piscitelli (keyboards Sardinia) and the new cellist Matt Woods, the work The band has always maintained its original character but try new solutions, without running the risk of recurrence. "The mood is always our composition, but over time thickens the sound and structure in a different way," says John. "We get bored when we hear the music in four quarters, very simple. There is always something already heard. Our idea is to do different things, and which remain. We do not want to make records meteor riding the trend of the moment. And we are not afraid to displace the listener with moments alienating. " Moreover, this attitude of Marta Sui Tubi has always been well represented in the work of the band. Almost an ethical, if you will, that feeds the respect of listening and live music almost as a mission. " It is no coincidence that the band have always refused, until now, the courting of major labels, maintaining control over their music and their creative process through the creation of a personal label, the drums used. "In the past we have signed contracts that we came out with force, not loved the pressure and wanted to do the things they like us, with our times, without being around people who earn money from us without doing anything," says the singer band. "If there was a label that the fine investing pennies and give us the artistic freedom, then we would be happy. But now we like so. We have everything we need to make records. " And speaking of records, but also growing curiosity about the new album, the fifth in a career that so far has consolidated its stature as one of the best bands in the independent circuit outputs zero out over the years. "We are traveling on new types of sounds, do not even know if" no network "will be released at the end of the disc," says John. "Certainly the mood of the album will be darker. There are moments of madness and deeper and more introspective. " Andrea Tramonte, Unione Sarda
