Risen from the ashes of teenage riot (3), a band which in recent years had many a success playing all across the peninsula, Le Scimmie sulla Luna, from Lecce, made a record which tastes international and experimental.

The sound of the band is a balance of tight rhythms and grooves that wink at funk, math and post-rock: hypnotic guitars seem to turn into synthesizers, moving from lively and melodic riffs to experimental contortions through massive use of delays and synth pedals. The goal of the band is to find the contact point of different musical genres and approaches, emphasizing and at the same time going beyond the dichotomy between what is “rock” and what is not.

Le Scimmie sulla Luna are: Cristiano Metrangolo (guitar), Stefano Greco (bass), Jory Stifani (guitars, synth), Luca Greco (drums).
