The Post Fogs took a long time, but it was worth it

For music, the kind done well, it takes time. Time to mature, experiment, ignite new creative sparks and then let them flare up. An increasingly difficult time to take because it goes beyond commercial logic and content bulimia. Post Nebbia took that time and are ready to return. And they do it with “Pastafrolla, the new single”. The song is the first song by the Paduan band led by Carlo Corbellini after the introspective, smoky and iconoclastic adventure of “Entropia Padrepio” of 2022. A decisive step into that world of downhill racing told in “Pista Nera”, the new album arriving on November 22nd. Written by Carlo Corbellini and arranged by Post Nebbia, as always firmly anchored to the DIY principle, “Pastafrolla” is the first piece created for the album and moves in a universe poised between anger and disillusionment, between disenchantment and betrayal, crossed by a feeling of generational vertigo.

A more rock, faster, more punk, more angled song than previous worksdesigned “to denounce with cynical and disenchanted irony the collapse of that cheerful and illusory future that they sold to us and the consequent lack of lightness in the construction of life and the relationships they forced us into,” we read in the presentation. “The text of ‘Pastafrolla’ is intentionally bipolar – says Carlo Corbellini – the verse is ruinous, almost Fantozzian: for the first sentence (‘The house is made of shortcrust pastry, you have to take into account that if it rains it will collapse’) I was inspired by a scene from the Simpsons in which, after the mafia won a contract, the school is built with crackers instead of bricks and when it rains it melts. The refrain instead expresses the bitter feeling that the future we grew up with is a fake, a second ‘Santa Claus doesn’t exist’ which is faced later than the first. The awareness therefore that it was all a lie, that the beliefs in which we were raised are fragile, crumbly. Like ‘Pastafrolla’, precisely”.
