La Biblioteca Deserta - Travelling Without Gravity (2010)

Quote: "La Biblioteca Deserta is a cathedral of emotions, where sound and silence come to life, originated by phantom words. The musical project starts during 2006, when five young composers (all born between 1986 and 1988) unite, glued together by their will to communicate through music.

These are the premises for their brave choice to venture into an instrumental post-rock, which combines Mediterranean sounds with North European atmospheres (eg. Mogwai, Sigur Ròs, Muse, Coldplay), heading towards a very dynamic experience, sumptuous crescendos and mighty explosions.

The band soon delivers their first efforts, which are met by both critical success and positive feedback by the general public, with several positive reviews on various specialized music web magazines, all around the world (as far as Japan and China). Constant live touring helps to band to perform in many important venues all around Italy, supporting various national and international artists, such as Marta sui Tubi, Ministri, APSE, Eric Chenaux. They also take part in many important music contests and festivals: Festa Europea Della Musica, Souni a sud-est (vincitori nell’edizione 2008), Planet of Sound, Biennale Dei Giovan i Artisti Europei, Laguna Street Festival, Saint Rock Festival, Music Festa, MEI, Italia Wave, Tour Music Fest, Fiera Della Musica, Cime Di Rock, No Day.

After being noticed by the music magazine "Rock Star", which features their song "Dalla Terra alla Luna" in their November 2009 issue, together with works from other important artists such as Teatro degli Orrori, Dente, Le Luci della Centrale El ettrica and many other indie acts, the band issues their first full length album, "Travelling without gravity", produced by the independent record label Faro Records, released on December 21st, 2009. The album has been mixed at Itaca Recording Studios by Mirko Patella, who has worked for Amari, La Fame di Camilla, Leitmotiv.

The adventure has just started."

La Biblioteca Deserta - La Biblioteca Deserta (2008)

La Biblioteca Deserta sind eine Post Rock Band aus Italien. 5 junge Männer - allesamt etwas über 20 Jahren alt machen auf ihrer zweiten, selbstbetitelten Demo nichts falsch. Die Soundqualität, das Arrangement, die Leidenschaft die in der Musik steckt. Alles in allem scheint man La Biblioteca Deserta in der ein oder anderen Form dann doch schon mal gehört zu haben: das Schlagzeug entfernt sich nicht weit vom Standard-Post Rock- Stil; cleane Gitarren dringen brilliant und mit jede Menge Reverb aus den Verstärkern, während der Bass sich, Grundtöne dreschend, um das Fundament der meistens über 10 Minuten langen Songs kümmert. Trotz all dem klingen die Teile, in denen die Italiener richtig aufdrehen frisch und inspiriert. Da treten zum Teil Gitarrenphaser in den Mittelpunkt, die Band wirkt bodenständiger und geben hier dem Album doch die kleine eigene Note.

La Biblioteca Deserta are a post rock band from Italy. 5 young men - all a bit over 20 years of age - do nothing wrong on their second, selftitled demo. The soundquality, the arrangement, the passion put into the music. But all in all it seems you might have heard La Biblioteca Deserta in one or the other way before: the drums don't depart far from the standard-post rock-style, clean guitars, with loads of reverb leak out of the amplifiers, while the bass - hammering the root notes - pays attention to the fundament of the mostly over 10 minutes long songs. Despite it all, the parts when the italians pump up the volume sound fresh and inspired. Guitar-phasers are centered, the bands seems down-to-earth and does not fail to give the album a little personal touch.
