ALBUM REVIEW: Destinazione Finale – In Bilico Nel Reale (Serial Bowl Records)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Destinazione<\/strong> Finale <\/strong>are a punk four-piece from Tuscany, Italy, who cite classic US hardcore as their biggest influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is their debut album, and follows their self-titled five-track EP<\/a><\/strong>, which was released on Serial Bowl Records in July 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Bilico Nel Reale (which translates as something like Suspended In Balance), was initially self-released by the band last December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now it has now been given a wider release by Sunderland-based Serial Bowl, which continues to bring us hardcore gems from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 13 tracks flash by in just over 18 minutes, with only one passing the two-minute mark, and although I haven’t got a clue what they’re singing about, as it’s all in their native tongue, it’s powerful stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Destinazione Finale, from Tuscany, Italy.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Destinazione Finals are Ivan (vocals), Alex (guitar), Ja (bass) and Ste (drums), and from the off they tear into their songs with a ferocity which reminds me of early Discharge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They play blistering Italian hardcore with a sprinkling of ’80s thrash, but their racket will also appeal to fans of bands like Bad Brains and OFF!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s hard to pick standout tracks when you don’t know what the songs are about, but I love the swaggering guitar of Condotta Sicura (\u201cSafe Conduct\u201d) and Lago di Luce (“Lake Of Light”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you like your punk served hard, loud and fast, with no little musicianship, I reckon you’ll enjoy this. 7\/10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can get In Bilico Nel Reale by Destinazione Finale from Serial Bowl Records’ Bandcamp page HERE <\/a><\/strong>from November 20.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
