Sono convinto che dobbiam tutti ringraziare il nostro intrepido antenato che ha avuto per primo il coraggio di mangiare un animale come l'aragosta. Ehm, con questo non vogliamo affatto incoraggiare il consumo di un essere vivente ucciso e martoriato cosí barbaramente, ma è chiaro che l'uomo che ha deciso di addentare per prova un crostaceo apparentemente cosí buono, o aveva molta fame o non si è lasciato impressionare dalla sua tipica forma minacciosa e vagamente incommestibile. Allo stesso modo, ascoltando il suono cosí poco friendly dei Solquest di Stefano Spataro [già Ada Nuki, leggi passata komarecensio], qualche tempo fa, non avrei mai pensato di essere proprio io il primo uomo a recensire il loro cd Fiare Vechi ['ferri vecchi' in rumeno, ndk] su questa fanzine. Invece, avvicinandomi con calma ed apnea subacquea alla loro proposta, superando la diffidenza iniziale per il taglio evidentemente antennoso e lunare dei loro pezzi, non si può che rimanere affascinati dall'idea di umanità che si radica sotto i frammenti disarticolati e da incubo in sottomarino di III o II. Nell'andamento Carpenteriano della trama che hanno scelto infatti, i Solquest riescono a mantenere sempre un sottotraccia incredibilmente caldo e pieno di speranza, come il fuoco che accendono padre e figlio di volta in volta nel viaggio apocalittico de La strada di Cormac McCarthy. Il paragone con lo splendido romanzo uscito due anni fa è inevitabile anche in relazione ai suggestivi video che fanno da colonna visiva ai pezzi della collezione e che mostrano scenari di un abbandono urbano prossimo al miglior L'ultimo uomo della Terra di Ragona. Solo una civiltà che si nutre delle aragoste in modo cosi tragico può ridurre in uno stato cosí desolante il posto in cui vive.

I'm sure all of us must thank that fearless ancestor of ours, the one who first found courage to eat that weird of animal the lobster is. I mean, said that, it is not in my intentions to support the massive consume of a living being, killed and tortured so cruelly, - anyway, it also sounds clear to me that the man who decided to experience what it was like to bit a crustacean, apparently so tasty, - or, maybe simplier, because of being really starving, he wasn't scared by its rocky shape, - and we know a lobster doesn't look exactly edible at first sight. That's the same for me with the not-so-friendly-sound of Solquest (that is, Stefano Spataro [formerly Ada Nuki, see former komareview]), - i would never imagined to be the first man here at komakino to write about Fiare Vechi CD [from rumanian 'old iron']. But, here i am, quietly getting closer, an inch from the surface of the water, - despite my early mistrust, seen their music cut, doubtful alien and aerial, - but, on the contrary, You cannot but being fascinated by the idea of a humanity rooted behind frightening and disjointed fragments, submarine-like in III or II. A Carpenterian process, Solquest keep clear a hidden way out, extraordinarily warm and hopeful, like the fire that father and son light up now and then along the apocalyptic voyage of The Road, by Cormac McCarthy. A comparison with the amazing book released two years ago was a foregone conclusion, also in relation with the evocative videos coming together with these tracks, showing such so abandoned places, closed to The Last Man on Earth by Ragona. Only a culture that feeds itself with lobsters so tragically can turn into bleakness the place they live in.

not yet, probably nobody cares, or nobody cared enough to tell something. Also: nobody reads komakino.
