Band: I HATE MY VILLAGE
Who: Italian indie supergroup, made up of 4 leading figures of the country’s
alternative music scene: Adriano Viterbini from Bud Spencer Blues Explosion),
Fabio Rondanini from Calibro 35 and Afterhours, Marco Fasolo from Jennifer Gentle
and Alberto Ferrari from Verdena. They released their self-titled debut album
in 2019.

New single: Water Tanks
First piece from their soon upcoming
new LP via Locomotive Records

“The song plays with brilliant, wild and unpredictable creative
brazenness. Inspired by the different passions and personalities
of the four band members, the song creates a unique and
unmistakable sound.”

Adriano Viterbini: “During a crazy and unusual pseudo-Afrobeat jam
during our first tour, we recorded it to tape and over time we finished it
digitally. It is slightly optimistic and hallucinated music, in unstoppable
degradation”.

TUTV: This is pretty special. Water Tanks is a psychedelic tribal trip
with circling Krautrock-like dynamics causing a trance-like effect.

Bone-chilling galvanism that boggles your mind and incites your senses,
while far-out vocals fit this enigmatic groove. Appealingly weird. You know
where to find the repeat button.

Video: The accompanying clip is created and shot by renowned director
and animator Donato Sansone. A single sequence shot, the video is a psychedelic
visual journey in which the camera passes through the four musicians in a game
of interpenetrations, spatial crossings, and surreal shapes in a cumbersome loop,
which perfectly echoes the uncontainable energy of the band.
