In the dark recesses of memory, where veterans of wars and revolutions still show off their grit, a band of irreverent peasants marches across the prairies of Annonaria Italy to unleash another epic musical battle. With a raw and unrestrained sound, Iron Mais return to shake the scenes with their sixth album, an explosion of cow-punk that mixes provocations, irony and a touch of decadence, without mincing words.
The sixth chapter of the irreverent cow-punk
After the strong successes of “Iron Mais”, “Hard Cock”, “Nausea”, “The Magnificent Six” and “Woodcock”, here comes “GIRATI CHE TI AMO”, a title that promises anything but elegance and sobriety. This album catapults listeners into the band’s unmistakable and vulgar world, with an explosive mix of styles that does not betray the deep roots of the best Italian cow-punk. Eleven tracks, eight of which are unreleased in Italian, show off provocations and autobiographical stories: think of “Deltacortene Blues (25 Kg compressi)”, a brutal portrait of the decadence of a rock star on the edge, with cortisone and bourbon as his only allies, or the crazy experiment of “La Canzone Dance”, which paints states of panic and confusion on an 80s/90s dance base, seasoned with country guitars and hypnotic rhythms for a delirious effect.**“You've probably tasted a lot of corn in these months, but we knew you couldn't wait to taste ours again..”** This statement from the band leaves no room for doubt: it's a direct and cheeky reminder to fans, ready to dive back into the corn chaos.
The secrets of the cow-punk band
Based in Northern Italy, between Lombardy and Emilia, Iron Mais are the most talked about cow-punk band in the Italian scene, an explosive mix of folk, country western and punk-hardcore groove. Their repertoire includes irreverent covers of rock classics and sarcastic originals, all served with a rustic charisma and a massive sound that makes the crowd dance. Since their debut, they have played hundreds of concerts, from live clubs to festivals, sharing stages with giants of the genre and bringing cow-punk into the mainstream thanks to participations in talent shows. Their discography, with six albums and various singles, now culminates in this new masterpiece of energy and irreverence.
