Forget about gripping noir atmospheres of their previous full lengths, with the new album the Milan Combo escapes from planet earth and lands on their own satellite to write the perfect funk soundtrack of an imaginary SciFi movie directed by Sergio Leone. Thrown away the balaclavas and embraced a bunch of synthesizers, in their new installment Calibro 35 explores new territories. From the storming imaginary main title notes of the title track “S.P.A.C.E.” to the percussive effects and creepy organ of “Serenade for a satellite” with incursions into cosmic afrobeat (“Ungwana Bay Launch Complex”), lunar funk (“Bandits On Mars”) and trippy atmospheres (“Something Happened on Planet Earth”) in S.P.A.C.E. Calibro 35 sounds as cinematic and groovy as ever. Captured live and direct to tape with no overdubbing or editing facilities by Tommaso Colliva (Muse/Franz Ferdinand), the sound is tough, warm and super tight and confirms the unique musicianship of the band able in few years to gain followers worldwide. Described by Rolling Stone magazine's as “the most fascinating, retro-maniac and genuine thing, that happened to Italy in the last years”, Calibro 35 enjoys a worldwide reputation as one of the coolest independent band around.
