This 7th regular studio album ...
This 7th regular studio album features vocal contributions from numerous female singers and actresses. Their heavenly vocals are embedded in Riccardo's progressive, ethereal folk music – played and supported by himself and by members of IRFAN, MODA, DIAFRAMMA and ASHRAM. Special appereances by Caterina Pontrandolfo and Maddalena Crippa. "The Moon is a Dry Bone" is the last file in the poetic mosaic of CORDE OBLIQUE. Those who know the band will recognize their well-defined identity, this time shaken up with a more extreme and brave approach. The harshness of times contained within each song is showcased with courage but sweetened by a light shining from childhood, streaming from the regions where wonders can still be inspiration and action. The new album includes 11 new songs , including a cover from Anathema, and presents an artist who is still able to speak to the arid yet receptive and promising planets.Mastering by Geoff Pesche (Abbey Road Studio - London).
