from us
Omosumo publish a new, self-titled album,
released on November 11. After the curious
and remarkable case of Surfin ‘Gaza, this time
the group talks about exodus, gives more space and weight to the lyrics, puts a mysterious
4
“Mother Blue” on the cover and goes into
electronic plains of great impact.
“Surfin ‘Gaza” was born from an encounter
between Arabs and Israelis on surfboards.
What is the concept of new album?
The record speaks of an exodus: part of the
population decides to leave this place in the
face of another condition. Abandoning any
type of unit, starting from the concept of
time, the division of space, of each measure
5
and sub-measure, the meter, the liter, until
you come to love.
You have chosen to sing every verse in Italian and it seems that the lyrics have gained
importance in the balance. Why?
