Band: LEATHERETTE
Who: 5 noisy pop/rock indies
from Bologna, Italy.

Following their incendiary 2022 debut album Fiesta, the band just announced the
delivery of an even more provocative and sophisticated record with the follow-up,
titled SMALL TALK. The new one finds Leatherette breaking free of the post-punk straitjacket some were keen to strap them in, indulging their love of wild noise and
twisted pop. The new album will be released on 3rd November via Bronson
Recordings.

The first single off the LP is called RONALDO

A song that explodes in jazz and shoegaze elements, a desperate scream that leads
to new romantic riffs, a tormented sax solo and melancholy vocals. A tune of inspired action and emotional turbulence, that talks of separation and of deep malaise.

Emotive, gloomy and estranged.
Impactful and fiery thrill.

I wonder if Cristiano Ronaldo would like it?

“Oh had I written that book that I was talking about!
All I’ve done is looking for a title that I still haven’t found!
Oh messy life, messy life, I’m Cristiano Ronaldo
But I’ve never ever ever had a ball
Oh had I written that book that I was talking about!
All I’ve done is looking for a title that I still haven’t found!
Oh messy life, messy life, I’m Cristiano Ronaldo
But I’ve never ever ever had a ball
I remember the last time you saw my face
And it was looking kinda twisted
Jumping to conclusions never led you anywhеre else
I can nеver tell when to surrender so I never get involved
In anything, in anything at all
I didn’t write the book that i was talking about!
All i’ve done is looking for a title that i still haven’t found!
Oh I’m losing my temper and i’m not gonna miss it!
I ain’t gonna miss you neither if you don’t want me to!
But I’ve never ever ever had a ball!”
