Alessandroni, Alessandro
Angoscia (black)
Originally released in 1975 during the so called 'italian years of lead' (anni di piombo), Angoscia endorses all of the subliminal and controversial emotions of the time with a series of ethereal yet mysterious sketches. It is possibly one of the most intense and obscure release by famous Morricone alumni and collaborator Alessandroni. His guitar is the leading voice here, with several cloudy synth arpeggios, classical piano chords and solemn string sections. A dark feel surrounds the opera overall: a true gem ranked between the most confrontational of the Italian libraries genre.
