Bio:
Chapter two for Anims, a band certainly not of rookies, but another really good project for Francesco Di Nicola, ex-guitarist of Danger Zone and Crying Steel, assisted by the trusty Paolo Caridi on drums, with him already in Luca Bonzagni's Krell ("here the review of "Deserts") and in Ellefson/Soto and by the good Elle Noir, who had already sung on the debut of 2022; Undoubtedly here the good Francesco is more involved, both at the songwriting level and at the production level, entrusted to himself and to Chiara Mencarelli, who is mainly in charge of the lyrics writing; moreover, the recording of "Good'n'evil" was carried out at Pri Studios by Roberto Priori, Francesco's long-time friend, as well as founding guitarist of Danger Zone and his axe-mate in the debut ep "Victim of time" in 1984.Francesco Di Nicola (Danger Zone, Crying Steel, Krell), author and co-author of the songs who plays both the bass guitars and guitars; the arrangement and writing of the drum tracks are done by Paolo Caridi (Ellefson-Soto, Reb Beach, Geoff Tate, Michele Luppi), a professional with international experience with whom Francesco Di Nicola has already collaborated on the recent “Deserts” album by Krell.The vocals come from Elle Noir, a popular factor in the 2022 debut album “God is a Witness.” The diffusion and intensity of the choruses, two pairs of rhythmic guitars that virtualize the presence of two guitarists, and the processing of sound, are the elements that give the work a particularly rich setting.“Good ‘n’ Evil” contains “Liar” and “Satellite,” two unreleased songs from the time in which Francesco Di Nicola collaborated with Crying Steel in the early 90s: a period without publications for the Bolognese group despite their constant presence in the metal scene. The physical CD features one more track, not present on the digital version: “Victim of Time,” the title track of the album with which Danger Zone officially debuted in 1984 and in whose lineup Francesco Di Nicola was present.The lyrics of the album, mainly composed by Chiara Mencarelli and integrated by Francesco Di Nicola, co-producers of this album, are of profound spiritual inspiration. As the title “Good ‘n’ Evil” suggests, the common denominator is the contrast between good and evil and the elevation to victory of the former over the latter. Biblical references are frequent, and the reflection of a meeting place between man and man and between man and God is reoccurring.Anyway, on with the review, I’m looking forward to rocking out.
Album:
Sneakout Records & Burning Minds Music Group are pleased to announce the renewal of their recording agreement with Italian hard ‘n’ heavy band AnimS, for the release of their new studio album “Good ‘n’ Evil” is scheduled to be released on May 31st, 2024.The album is the result of intense work developed in the studio. Francesco Di Nicola (Danger Zone, Crying Steel, Krell), author and co-author of the songs, plays both the bass guitars and guitars; the arrangement and writing of the drum tracks are done by Paolo Caridi (Ellefson-Soto, Reb Beach, Geoff Tate, Michele Luppi), a professional with international experience with whom Francesco Di Nicola has already collaborated on the recent “Deserts” album by Krell. The voice is the warm and characterising one of Elle Noir, the winning element of the 2022 debut album “God is a Witness”. The diffusion and intensity of the choruses, two pairs of rhythmic guitars that virtualize the presence of two guitarists and the processing of sound, are the elements that give the work a particularly rich setting...
