Description/Reviews: 

Unreal City are a young band from Parma, who present a symphonic prog-rock with strong dark and gothic influences. In June 2012 Unreal City released a self-produced EP and were therefore contacted by Fabio Zuffanti (Hostsonaten, La Maschera Di Cera, Finisterre…), who
decided to produce the band's first album for the label Mirror Records.“La Crudeltà Di Aprile” contains surprisingly mature music, mixed with modern lyrics, that were written in English first, and then translated back to Italian, to clearly transmit the album’s message. The thread that binds tightly the stories tells about corruption of things and people, changes, and self evolution.

Description/Reviews: 

Under the artistic direction of Fabio Zuffanti and Rossano Villa, Luca’s ideas are enhanced with lush arrangements ranging from symphonic prog to psychedelia, hard-Crimson atmospheres, with touches of ethnic and fusion music.
The result is an album diverse and peculiar, where is easy to lose your bearings for the many subtleties and peculiarities that surprise the listener in this labyrinthine path. This is original and sophisticated instrumental music.
