RESURRECTURIS Premier Video For “6:30 The Alarm”
August 31, 2015, 9 years ago
Italy’s Resurrecturis will release their new album, Nazienda, on September 25th via Mighty Music. Their new video for “6:30 The Alarm” can be seen below.
In the video, actor Roberto Marinelli is subjected to a brutal awakening treatment by members of Resurrecturis who chase him and scream at him during the early morning preparation before going to work.
"For sure the video is pretty funny and ironic, but is built upon a bitter reflection on today's suffocatingly tightening time use schedules and the ever increasing stress at work... Preoccupations don't leave us even in the privacy of our bedroom or in the toilet! The song “6:30 The Alarm” occupies an important position in the economy of Resurrecturis' Nazienda since it marks the abrupt transition from the comfort we experience at home with our dears to the stress-filled time of the working day. Significantly the lyrics end saying The working day has begun, and it is pretty crazy since the character is still in the stairs at home, but his mind is already filled by anxiety." - Carlo Strappa, Resurrecturis
The album-title, “Nazienda”, a neologism that merges the words “nazism” and “azienda” (Italian for company, corporation), sets a tone that is tragic and ironic at the same time. Just listen to the song “10:30 Animals In The Meeting Room”: solid and fierce metallic extremism with crazy animal verses going cuckoo.
The songs run through the routine of a typical working day, each number even bearing an indication of the hour in the title: from the irritating buzz of the alarm early in the morning until the character slips into unconsciousness on the couch in front of the TV. In-between a flood of annoying phone calls, company meetings, work on the PC, solidarity among colleagues and introspective reflections.
The album was produced and engineered by Alessandro Vagnoni (Dark Lunacy, Bologna Violenta, Infernal Poetry, Darkside). Nazienda - Graphic Novel written by Carlo Strappa and drawn by Albano Scevola also available.
