Vital Weekly sugli Sparkle in Grey: SPARKLE IN GREY – THURSDAY EVENING (CD by Grey Sparkle) Sparkle in Grey is an Italian group. Since 2005 they do their rehearsals every Thursday evening. Firstly a drive of 60 kilometers and then subsequently the members of the band drag up four storeys high the instruments and amplifiers. What an effort to leave the weekly stress of work behind Their latest album "Thursday Evening" is an ode to this weekly rehearsals. The title track begins with some seeking tones, melodies and rhythms are scanning the musical horizon and is evolving more and more. The members of the band Alberto Carozzi, Cristiano Lupo, Franz Krostopovic and Matteo Uggeri know how to to play their instruments. A mix of folk and samples makes this song to a great adventure . "Thursday Evening" is a worthy successor to the album Mexico and sounds more mature and balanced. The adventure between shoegaze, electronic music, folk influences remained and seems more developed. In "The Piano Song" a ballad is approached. The harmony between piano, violin and bass is broken or challenged by the subtle field- recordings somewhere far in the background. The instrumental album starts with the song "Der Mauer" with a driving bass and drums, the violin and guitar solos support hypnotic which continues in the sequential number and evolves into an explosion of sound. The sampled beats and sounds are a refreshing contrast to the almost traditional occupation and approach to a post-rock band with folk influences. The alternation between subtly played songs and uptempo songs gives the listener the opportunity to go in different ways in different musical worlds. All in all, "Thursday Evening" a beautiful musical adventure where musical boundaries are broken and musical worlds merge with each other. The music fits perfectly with that sense the artwork of the album and some samples which are calling to fight for a better and cleaner world. That will be possible by mixing traditional and progressive ideas and principles and takes off the best of it and that will lead o a better world. This record will be at least part of that world.
