Corde Oblique : The Moon is a Dry Bone - CD Corde Oblique : The Moon is a Dry Bone - CD  Ref: 22358 File: Progressive / Mediterenean Folk Music with Heavenly Voices

For fans of: TROBAR DE MORTE, ASHRAM , IRFAN, KIRLIAN CAMERA… 11 all new tracks from one of Italy's greatest musical projects! ‘ CORDE OBLIQUE' is the musical ensemble directed by the guitarist/composer Riccardo Prencipe, that once started his discographic career with 'Lvpercalia' (2000, World Serpent / 2004, Equilibrium). But CORDE OBLIQUE also features such highly regarded musicians as Luigi Rubino (Argine, Ashram), Edo Notarloberti (Ashram), Alessio Sica (Argine) and others.

This 7th regular studio album features vocal contributions from numerous female singers and actresses. Their heavenly vocals are embedded in Riccardo's progressive, ethereal folk music – played and supported by himself and by members of IRFAN, MODA, DIAFRAMMA and ASHRAM. Special appereances by Caterina Pontrandolfo and Maddalena Crippa. "The Moon is a Dry Bone" is the last file in the poetic mosaic of CORDE OBLIQUE. Those who know the band will recognize their well-defined identity, this time shaken up with a more extreme and brave approach. The harshness of times contained within each song is show- cased with courage but sweetened by a light shining from childhood, streaming from the regions where wonders can still be inspiration and action.

The new album includes 11 new songs , including a cover from Anathema, and presents an artist who is still able to speak to the arid yet receptive and promising planets. Mastering by Geoff Pesche ( Abbey Road Studio - London ). CORDE OBLIQUE already released 7 albums and performed in Italy, China, France, Germany, Belgium, Holland and Albania, sharing the stage with bands like Bauhaus, Anathema, Opeth, Moonspell, Ataraxia, Spiritual Front, QNTAL, Kirlian Camera, Of the Wand & The Moon & more.
