About Me |

The story of the band started in 2003. Actually in 2001 Francesco and Raffaele, who went to the same High-school, were together in a band, but the things didn't seem to go so well, so they splitted up. They played in 2 different bands for 2 long years. During that period Francesco played with Fabio and Oreste (one of his schoolmates), while Raffaele was in a grunge-band. However both started their activity as songwriters. One hot evening in July 2003, Francesco,Oreste and Raffaele met each other in a pub. Raffaele and Oreste were drinking pints of beer, Francesco ordered a cocktail and so decided to form a new band. After some days they decided to adopt the name "Starframes". At first Starframes were well-known as a "The Strokes-tribute-band",but it didn't take so much to see the first songs of the group be written. "Day by day","Whine Romance","City Lights" and "We're all in it" (which became "Jane" in 2005) were composed between October and December 2003. All of them (except for "Day by day") formed the track-list of the Starframes first demo "City highlights", which consented them to play in some clubs in Naples. In particular Starframes played 3 times at the Slovenly Rock and Roll Bar, which was the coolest place in Naples for a band. Everything seemed to go fuckin' well, cause the Slovenly was directely linked to the Slovenly Records and Starframes got in contact with some people who worked there. Also some important songs were written during that period. "I do play my rock and roll", "Set fire to the world,"Schoolmate","In your hands","Horror house","I don't give in", "The killer","Jimmy Cadillac" were born between March and October 2004. Unfortunately the Rock and roll bar closed and the "live-activity" of the band was suddenly stopped because of that. A new demo was released in December 2004. Its name was "On the way to Mars". The track list was formed by "I do play my rock and roll","Schoolmate","Set fire to the world" and "I don't give in". After that new songs were written: "Fear and pride", "She's the one I love", "Don't ask for tomorrow, "Mentally insane"(the first one penned by Oreste), "Don't try to do it to me". So the following months were spent for songwriting and experimenting the new songs. All the songs written by the band are influenced by the music of The Who, The Clash, The Jam and the "punk and roll" scene which dominated the end of the 70s. In spring 2005 Starframes made some good gigs in different clubs in Naples. After that the members of the band decided to stop for some months. At the end of summer 2005 they met each other again and decided that, after 2 years, the time had come to collect all the good work done up to then. So the idea of making an album was born. Giving a name to it was necessary. Starframes decided that "One for the beginners" could be a representative one. The recording sessions started in March 2006 but they were interrupted several times because of various reasons. However at the end of 2006 Starframes finished the work and during these days they've put it out. Here is the complete tracklist: 1)I do play my rock and roll2)Schoolmate3)City lights4)Jimmy Cadillac5)Don't try to do it to me6)Fear and pride7)Jane8)She's the one I love9)The killer10)Don't ask for tomorrow11)Mentally insane12)Day by day . Nowadays Starframes are looking for a label. They are going to make a video that will appear on this website as soon as possible.Here you can listen to the remaining tracks of the album. Enjoy! :) free player from mysplayer.comwww.sowdust.it (Clicca sull'immagine per leggerla tutta) ... Tanto per fare un esempio, The Killer (uno dei pezzi migliori del disco) l’avrei vista bene cantata, con le dovute modifiche, da uno scatenato Iggy Pop su qualche puzzolente palco americano nel 1973, mentre She’s The One I Love è una specie di Soma (Strokes) un po’ più sanguigna e tagliente. Ma vanno anche citate altre canzoni, tutte di qualità sempre medio-alta come la cantilenante City Lights, Don’t Ask For Tomorrow (ballad alla Libertines), la ballad Don’t Try This To Me, l’abrasiva Jimmy Cadillac, e un altro pezzo rock d’autore come Fear And Pride... *************************************************** www.xtm.it (Clicca sull'immagine per leggerla tutta) ... se dovesse capitarvi tra le mani questo disco, non conoscendo la band giurereste che viene dal Regno Unito. Melodia e sporcizia tipicamente inglese, anni Sessanta per giunta. E invece la band in questione viene da Napoli ed è composta da quattro ragazzi che sono dediti alla cultura e alla filosofia mod che i loro padri ispiratori abbracciarono decine di anni fa.......... |
