Alessandro Cortini (Blindoldfreak, Sonoio, Skarn, & other projects)

[RJK]

I love it! Haven't had a chance to watch the video but loving the song. So glad to finally hear his voice on a song again. It's been too long.

[TinDefacto]

Loving it! I'm not sure how exactly I feel about the video's content, but it's visually spectacular and I love what Caspar and co did with it.

Also, do we know what this album will be called yet? Yellow?

[niggo]

I tried to write down the lyrics. It's pretty hard; I'm not a native speaker and neither is Ally. Does anyone spot any mistakes? Especially at the end I'm just guessing.

Come on, come on, come on
Come talk to me
Maybe the night is young
Maybe your fantasy

Sit down, relax, the best used to be
Well, come on, come on, come on

Maybe be invisible is not unpredictable
Maybe that's the problem with me

Thanks for calling
Thanks for letting me go
Thanks for asking
Even though you know that
I'm falling

Come on, come on, come on
Come talk to me
Maybe you're not enough
Maybe enough of me

Look back, your past, relapse, used to be
Well, come on, come on, come on

Maybe be miserable is not unpredictable
Maybe that's the problem with me

Thanks for calling
Thanks for letting me go
Thanks for asking
Even though you know that
I'm falling

Pieces falling
To pieces falling

Thanks for calling
Thanks for letting me go and
Thanks for asking
Even though you know that
I'm falling
Somewhere down below

Fear of walking
Fear of walking lonely
Can we stop it?
'Til I need some more 'cause
I'm falling
Somewhere down below

I'm done talking (?)
Fear of letting you know that
No one's coming
Even though we know that
I'm falling
Somewhere down below

I don't know, I crumble, used to be (?)
Your shadow crawling back to me
What's wrong?
You know

How long?

Is that Harwood Gordon in the water reflection?

[butter_hole]

I like the song but I'm not sure about Ally's the vocals on this track. For some reason, it reminds me of Morrissey.

How dare you

[arsenic]

is it just me or this new song tastes a bit like modwheelmood? I really like it.

So... Forse 3 is reportedly coming "soon" and a new sonoio album is coming "soon" too, possibly along with a european tour? great news : )

[orestes]

Not sure but Marshall Allman and Daveigh Chase play the couple.

Plus the Skarn album is coming soon too. Alessandro has been a busy bee for sure (and my wallet is not happy with me.)

[neorev]

Yes, new Sonoio!!!
I like his Sonoio (vocal) stuff... can't wait!
Is it gonna be another color named album?
Blue... Red... Yellow?
Does "Blue" = sadness? "Red" = anger? What's the next color? "Yellow" = cowardness? or "Green" = rich mofo now?

[slave2thewage]

The first verse sounds so much like Zola Jesus. Approved.

[ManBurning]

Love the new track. So happy to hear new SONOIO, i think it's his best project. I couldn't get behind any of that Forse instrumental stuff, but this stuff... is amazing!
Maybe it's just his voice that's missing from the instrumental tracks. His voice really adds to his songs.

Can't wait for a new album, and maybe a tour?

[cynicmuse]

Yay! New SONOIO! I like this track.

[fragmentjunkie]

Love most of Ally's stuff, but this feels a little slight.

[imail724]

I like the song but I'm not sure about Ally's the vocals on this track. For some reason, it reminds me of Morrissey.

As an enormous Morrissey fan, not at all.

[wizfan]

The music video reminded me of this...

[Charmingly Miserable]

I actually woke up to this song stuck in my head and it was on a loop all morning long. It's a keeper.

[TinDefacto]

He now has a fourth solo project, Skarn.

[SIR.LONDONCLEANLILY]

Anyone that is interested in the first two records on cd hit me up. For some reason when I ordered them I got two sets. Whatever the asking price is I will beat it! I am also open for trades. Shit, if someone wants to buy me the new record when it comes out I will send you the first two as a trade!

[BenAkenobi]

Most buyers got two, because one pressing had some visual flaw

[SIR.LONDONCLEANLILY]

Mine came like a day apart and both seem fine. Weird.

I gave it a shot.

your shadow crawling back to me

Has anyone found a place to order this yet? It was supposed to release on the 14th, but I've found nowhere to buy.

[hologram parade]

Cortini doenst seem to take it easy much. Looks like another project

Slumber Man EP thats been mentioned in one interview and one review of his latest Skarn release

"Cortini is due to release an EP for Panzerkreuz as Slumber Man"
"The Slumber Man release will be the typical Panzerkreuz release of 100-200 copies.”
