STORMO "Tagli/Talee" CD
Record Label - Prosthetic
Long running Italian post-hardcore and noise punk band STORMO are set to make their return in 2025 with their forthcoming fifth album, Tagli/Talee, set for release via Prosthetic Records on March 21. Translated as ‘cutting’ and ‘grafts’, STORMO’s latest full-length serves as a document of their extensive travels whilst on tour throughout Europe, with each song acting as a vignette of their surroundings to create a broader picture of humanity at its most personal.
Following the release of their well received 2023 full-length, Endocannibalismo, STORMO undertook an extensive touring schedule of Europe across their native Italy and the mainland over the course of a year which culminated in an appearance at the revered Roadburn Festival in Tilburg, NL. Having developed a live reputation for relentless intensity akin to first wave screamo, possessing noise rock’s angularity and black metal speed, Tagli/Talee was written exclusively whilst travelling across the continent.
Tagli/Talee’s focus on cuts and grafts symbolically collages and embodies the transient surroundings and characters that has filled their last few years, with Norway’s extreme metal scene seeping into their sonic assault on tracks such as Tagli, Kallitype and the fraught closer Come Fauce Che Divora. The pacing and structure of the songs themselves also inspired by their contemporaries whilst on the road, with vocalist Luca Rocco taking a keen interest in unifying the sequencing of a live set to that of the band’s recorded output.
Recording duties once again were placed in the hands of Diego Castioni at Cabot Cove, Bologna, ahead of mixing and mastering being handled by Maurizio Baggio. Further dissonant noise flourishes were added during and after recording, with Castion providing sound textures to Sabbia Pt. II and Alberto Bertelli (aka Holy Similaun) on Come Fauce Che Divora, adding a kinetic viscerality to proceedings. Art for Tagli/Talee was delicately crafted by Massimo Spadari, combining lithograph, etching and linocut processes to the piece in painstaking detail.
With Tagli/Talee, STORMO continue to carve out their own unique approach to punk as an umbrella term, with explosive repercussions, ahead of debut UK touring in early 2025 and their eyes set on bringing Tagli/Talee to the stage with their idiosyncratic volatility.
