“Hey you, have you found God? is a concept album that tells a banal and devastating existential crisis, starting from the ovaries and arriving at political belief – assuming that they are two distant aspects in the life of a female artist in a patriarchal country. The language, naturally indie and unconsciously close to the songwriting of Ani Di Franco and Laura Marling in the structures of the pieces, is imbued with sounds that at times recall Police, Kurt Vile, The National. We speak of unawareness because it was written in one go by a former opera singer who has been through a lot of experimental theater and a musician with as much Dylan and slowcore behind him. The result is an original sound that cannot be labeled because it is authentic and not sought after. The pieces are eight and were chosen from about fifteen raw tracks, some of which are still in progress.
"I translated into this record the synthesis of a life that no longer had time to get lost. A life that reclaimed its identity, without discounts or disjunctions - states Camilla Ciminelli - there is pain, fear, exhaustion, surrender and a mild form of hope that only time, still him, will demonstrate to be valid or not. And above all it is a record in which the urgency to generate has cancelled the past by writing, and is trying to cancel the future by playing and reading about mythology. I struggle to understand the present but I live it."
From the same day, the single “Lover's wall” will be available on radio rotation. The song features lyrics in which fragments of Ovid's Ars Amatoria are supported by a carpet of 80s guitars that at a certain point explode into a wall of sound full of noise and screams, typical of a late 90s fire.
