Discs of Three Days Grace have great power. Surprise you and reassure you in the same way as it is able to do only the memory of a great, old love. The three of Pordenone during leisure time can become distracted in many ways (record labels, management, label and cultural associations, publication of books / comics, reading, artistic productions ...) but when the music calls them, when pulsates beneath the soil of provincial lands and border Toffolo and friends know how to get it out and know how to create timeless songs, unusual for the meaning, but you always seem to know by experience and profession. Surprise you and reassure you, in fact.
Each new album of Three Allegri is as if he had the ability to make you forget the previous one, because even more beautiful, intense, magical and mysterious. Then you listen carefully, you realize that in reality it's all connected, it's all a result of something already mentioned, already whispered. "In the garden of ghosts" is not the most beautiful of "The Second Revolution of the Three Days Grace" and "Primitives of the future," just as if it were the result, the next chapter (but I like to think that it can also be parallel, sometimes). And if we think that this great story that is real life we tell it in their own way (and we like it) since 1997, then if a little 'nostalgic and emotional it is, you can not help but get excited again and to bring to this band all the respect that it should. Consistent with their style, but always ready to experiment, the Three Allegri have printed a disc to listen from start to finish, an album that speaks to everyone, and I mean even with all those kids misunderstood you set fire to their concerts on songs like "Eyes Low", "Miss primavolta" and "My Picture" and which grew, still waiting for one of their live today as if it were a ritual in which we participate with shoes and all the good spirit is there.
The Three Allegri are back, are back in style. When they announced that "Primitives of the future" would be a reggae album, many of us are frightened. Then we listened. We loved him, we sweated and devoured. It did not seem that much more different or strange. With the review of the same style dub-step we danced, smiled and enjoyed. Now with "In the Garden of ghosts" we can not help but return to open their eyes to reality and let us move to the rhythm of the Three Allegri in their songs, as from the beginning, still own the veil of resignation (the bad times we live in I can speak to wonder ...) and awareness laid on top of so much hope. It is back to talk about adolescence and lost souls torn from life in the beautiful and irresistible "Hunters" where the melody is the mistress, back to rock tribal rhythms as the forerunner "As I look at you" and "Liar," and then there they are, the songs already on first listen makes you want to sing out loud (as happened with "The world first" and in the years that they were with "Every adolescence"): "My life without you", and returns reggae and a touch of romance sad upbeat that gets right in the head and heart and you take nicely with the next "On the lost souls," a refrain predominant, a different song for the intention from the previous but similar fate, beauty of the melody and immediacy. Dark, dark, with an intro almost Celentano is instead "The End of the Day": a blues rock by clapping their hands, softly in the foreground, echoes that come together in unison and come from afar, bass to be rotated whirling head and make you forget any other instrument ... a small masterpiece. In true ponds and rock'n'roll comes "The way home" and "Well it" remembers "Poetry and goods" of "The second sexual revolution ...", but with a completely different text: this time Tarm fantasize a little and are more real than ever, leaving aside the animalistic metaphors and crafting one of the most genuine and sincere songs on the disc. The evolution, transformation and growth return to peep with the choir and reggaeggiante "And then he sings" gives way to "new order" which initially seems a Celtic song and fabulous but actually spread over arrangements that refer to the most recent Gorillaz Damon Albarn and - dare a little 'more - to a certain Tom Waits. The disc closes with another episode worthy of note: "What is really about a song?" (Which I personally reminds me of the disturbance ... I could not have asked for anything better) is the perfect song for the grand finale, orchestrated, ironic , cunning, popular and rhythmic properly.
Enough, the disc there is much more to say, like the Three Days Grace. It is not always easy to talk about something in which you are personally involved, often runs the risk of being impartial and talk more with the heart than with reason. But believe me ... listen to this album and you will see that - involved or not - will spend forty minutes better spent the month.
