about

Grey tears run down the walls of the squalid buildings of our ghost towns, immense cemeteries with the abstract semblance of evolved civilisations. We cannot escape our responsibilities, our mistakes, our faces marked by endless melancholy.
This continuous vision in time generates illusory images of ancestral loves, unacknowledged passions, extrinsic massacres on lying, criminal and corrupt television screens.
Once again, KARBOKROMA is not just an image, a painting, a sign and an unresolved gesture, but is transformed once again into a post-punk sound thanks to the union of sensitive and brilliant musicians.
The drawn figures become sound, and the sound transforms into image, into continuous metamorphoses, into a languor that takes us to remote places where grey tears flow slowly and hotly.
KARBOKROMA is :

Marco Menazzi (THINK): guitar, drum programming, synth, arrangements.

Lorenzo Bianchi Quota: bass, drum programming, synthesizer, arrangements.

Bernardino Costantino: artistic coordination, vocals, lyrics, artworks.

Matteo Torcinovich: mixing and vocal effects.

Diana Stefanel: second voice in "In the ice forest" and "I see, I feel, I delete".

Guest star: William Westwater: vocals and lyrics in "Crown of fire" Music by Karbokroma (Menazzi/Quota)

Des larmes grises coulent sur les murs des immeubles sordides de nos villes fantômes, immenses cimetières aux semblants abstraits de civilisations évoluées. Nous n'échappons pas à nos responsabilités, à nos erreurs, à nos visages marqués par une mélancolie sans fin.
Cette vision continue dans le temps génère des images illusoires d'amours ancestrales, de passions inavouées, de massacres extrinsèques sur des écrans de télévision menteurs, criminels et corrompus.
Une fois de plus, KARBOKROMA n'est pas seulement image, peinture, signe et geste irrésolu, mais se transforme à nouveau en un son post-punk grâce à l'union de musiciens sensibles et brillants.
Les figures dessinées deviennent son et le son se transforme en image, en métamorphoses continues, en langueur qui nous emmène dans des endroits reculés où les larmes grises coulent lentement et brûlantes.
KARBOKROMA, c'est :

Marco Menazzi (THINK) : guitare, programmation de la batterie, synthé, arrangements.

Lorenzo Bianchi Quota : Basse, programmation de la batterie, synthé, arrangements.

Bernardino Costantino : coordination artistique, voix, paroles, artworks.

Matteo Torcinovich : mixage et effets vocaux.

Diana Stefanel : deuxième voix dans "In the ice forest" et "I see, I feel, I delete".

Guest star : William Westwater : voix et paroles dans "Crown of fire" Musique de Karbokroma (Menazzi/Quota)

about

Karbokroma Italy

"KARBOKROMA" is an impromptu and brutalist lo / fi musical project that combines dark / wave and industrial sounds. The architects of this theater of the sound absurd are: Erik Ursich, Bernardino Costantino, Roberto Galati. All this musical amalgam was born in the distant / near 2002 from the mephitic mists of a sublime Venice, cathedral of art and degenerate mother of all human alienation... ... more
