A Critic's Take on Daniele Silvestri's Latest Album
Daniele Silvestri is a name that rings a bell in the world of Italian pop music. Known for his impactful and thought-provoking lyrics, he has carved a niche for himself among listeners of all ages. His latest offering, named after himself, has been eagerly awaited by his fans. In this post, we will do a critical review of the album, discuss the artist's brief history, the music genre of the album, the best songs of the album, and the most innovative parts.
Daniele Silvestri got his start in the music industry in the early 90s, and his dramatic lyrics with a political edge, have cemented his spot in the Italian music scene. With his new album, Silvestri has stayed true to his beginnings, sticking with engaging lyrics that make you think. Though this album is different from his previous work, this new sound shows a continued evolution of his music.
The album is rooted in modern pop music but doesn't shy away from the inclusion of elements from other genres. One senses hints of rock, rap, and funk. His unique sound never goes too far, but is always present as a base- matching the lyrics in their intensity.
When listening to the album, three tracks stood out. Fino a farmi male is a bombastic title track that gets you hooked right from the beginning. This musical powerhouse with its catchy melody and interesting rhythm has one of the more memorable hooks of the album. Argento Vivo has an entirely different vibe with its laid back reggae feel, Sandro Mussida's guitar in the bridge is outstanding. Lastly, Prima di essere morto, we find the most personal and emotionally raw song on the album. With nothing but an acoustic guitar accompanying Silvestri's voice, it feels as if he is pouring out his heart.
The most innovative aspect of the album is also the one that tends to divide Silvestri's listeners the most. The concept of spoken word is used prominently throughout the album. This style blends rhythm, tone, and lyrics. Songs like Dolce Vita and Foglie di Banano are prime examples of how Silvestri and his team successfully executed this style. But, spoken-word delivery is not for everyone, and it might not win over people who are not already fans of Silvestri's lyrical style.
Critically speaking, the only flaw that's hard to ignore is the lack of consistency in style throughout the album. Silvestri jumps from style to style, which can lead to a lack of cohesiveness. He quickly goes from up-tempo pop to more relaxed reggae, and then to spoken word. While the songs individually provide an excellent listening experience, when mashed together, they don't make the same kind of impact as something that has a singular sound.
Daniele Silvestri's latest self-titled album is a great representation of the musician's talent, and it's certainly worth picking up, especially if you're a fan of Silvestri. He has proven his ability to combine his unique style of lyrics with a new and exciting approach to music. Even though not every track is a hit, the album's high points compensate for this. For anyone who is new to Silvestri's music, this album is a fantastic place to start, highlighting the man's talents and his potential.
