The world is falling apart, so much so that the future would often seem to be behind us. The Italian band\u00a0Yesterday Will be Great<\/strong>\u00a0goes on with the release of the first album\u00a0The Weather Is Fantastic<\/em><\/strong>, recorded under the supervision of\u00a0Nicola Manzan (Bologna Violenta, Ronin)<\/strong>, to be released on CD and digital on\u00a0April 8th, 2022<\/strong>\u00a0via\u00a0Blooms Recordings<\/strong>. The title of the album fills a dystopian concept with irony: “Speaking of the weather, chatting, is typical of that superficiality that is destroying us, but of which we feel the need<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

Following last year’s excerpt\u00a0The Diamond’s Issue<\/em>, the album is launched by the new single\u00a0Little Blue Flower<\/strong><\/em>, premiered on Son Of Marketing<\/strong><\/a> and available on all digital platforms\u00a0today\u00a0February 25th, 2022<\/strong>, transposition into music of the strength of a small flower that borns among the cracks in the concrete.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2017,\u00a0Yesterday Will be Great<\/strong>\u00a0– also known by the acronym YWBG – debuted with the EP\u00a0Y<\/em>\u00a0in 2019, often playing live, even supporting international artists like Minami Deutsch. In the meantime, several things have changed, both in the sound and in the band’s line-up.\u00a0The Weather Is Fantastic<\/em>\u00a0took shape in the second half of 2021, mainly from improvisation, and was oriented for the first time to a full\u00a0instrumental<\/strong>\u00a0but no less communicative work. The dialogue between the instruments flows without the word filter. “Instrumental music exists in a deeper and probably less immediate dimension, and what we were interested in was to move away from any scheme and immerse ourselves in more intimate feelings. Less is more<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

The guiding light is a\u00a0post-rock<\/strong>\u00a0background, with elective affinities such as Mogwai or Sigur R\u00f3s. However, there are no stylistic boundaries and there are instead many different influences, from psychedelia to alt-rock, from shoegaze to ambient music. At the same time, there is a somewhat proudly do it yourself attitude, confirmed by the recording sessions held almost entirely live at the PMS Studio in Ravenna, without editing the imperfections. “We freed ourselves from any coldness in favor of greater humanity. The idea of \u200b\u200bthe live recordings was provided to us by Manzan and convinced us so much that we later decided to do very little post-production and leave the possible dirt of the tracks: listen to our imperfections<\/em>“. So, the music of the trio reveals purity, warmth and minimalism, cinematic suggestion and rampage. “We are what we play. It’s our energy<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

Yesterday Will be Great<\/strong>\u00a0are always led by deus ex machina\u00a0Simone Ricci\u00a0on the visionary\u00a0guitars\u00a0(ex Kisses From Mars and already active with the solo project The Nude, as well as artistic co-producer of the label Blooms Recordings), and completed by\u00a0Daniele Mambelli, powerful and versatile on\u00a0drums, and by the experienced new entry\u00a0Giuseppe De Domenico\u00a0on bass. Among the sources of inspiration, for the three musicians, there are\u00a0Fight Club<\/em>\u00a0and Kubrick’s movies, books by Bukowski, Richler and Eugenides, landscapes by Hopper, Monet and Van Gogh, as well as photography. The melancholy and enigmatic pic on the album cover, taken by Ricci himself, represents the lack of something: why is that chair there, and who is missing to sit on it? Maybe it will be possible to find out, or imagine it, by listening to\u00a0The Weather Is Fantastic<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
