Summoning the melancholic tones of Leonard Cohen and the narrative ambiguity of Tom Waits, it draws the listener into a dark and captivating world.
Its haunting melodies and evocative lyrics paint images of deserted streets, smoky bars, and Bukowskian tales of damnation. With a unique blend of nostalgia and disillusionment, ‘The Soot Songs’ captures the essence of the human experience in all its complexity and rawness.
Daniele Perrino himself describes his work as follow: «The name “The Soot Songs” is about the burning in our souls. The resulting blaze creates a metaphorical soot which partly settles and partly hovers. Which do we need more? What has settled or our freedom? Maybe they both depend on each other.
