Band - Neon
Title - Memories
Label - Other Voices
Format - CD
Year - 2009
Genre - Synthpop, New Wave
Neon was one of the most active band in 80’s Italian new wave time, marking Italian rock history. The band, which was born first as a duo at the end of the 70’s in Florence’s underground culture, soon stands out for its Kraftwerk and new wave icons’ synth, which made their style a unique 80’s cultural dream’s specimen, together with a new romantic and post punk touch of bands like Joy Division, Ultravox and Human League. In 1980, the band got off to an electronic start with the 7” single «Information of death», and later, through several line up changes, it achieves to synthesize a mix of obsessive electro sounds, obscure atmospheres and quite original pop melodies which take shapes in later works like «Tapes of Darkness» (1981), «Obsession» (1981), «My Blues is You» (1983), «Dark Age» (1984); in 1985 «Rituals» sanctioned Neon as the best Italian new wave band of that year. Excellent studio productions and intense live activities has brought Neon to be one of the few icons belonging to alternative 80’s Italian music scene.
