Albums Of The Week: Zolle | Rosa

THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “Italian rock duo Zolle return with Rosa — an album where the heavy parts are lovingly heavier and the melodic parts are monstrously more melodic than in the past. Imagine (if you can) Crowbar on a diet singing The Ramones at an AC/DC show with Metallica as an opening act.

Rosa is Italian for pink, but it also refers to the flower itself. Rosa sounds incisive and unconventional, its nine tracks brimming with a buzzing energy. Rosa features playful vocals and melodies, muscular riffs and highly propulsive drums. Rosa tells, in a universal language, of different elements united by a belonging. Rosa is truly in the pink, as the album’s artwork suggests.

Zolle are an incisive, unconventional rock duo who like to combine playful voices and melodies, powerful guitar riffs and super-energetic drums. Rosa was conceived in the countryside close to the Po river. But really, Zolle find their maximum expression playing live: They win you over with their smiling approach, then bowl you over with their guaranteed vibrations.”
