Read full details
C.S.I. (Consorzio Suonatori Indipendenti) brings their politically charged post-punk to Catania for a live performance. The band, which evolved from the legendary CCCP Fedeli alla linea, was founded in 1992 by Giovanni Lindo Ferretti and Massimo Zamboni, with members of Litfiba. Their name reflects the fall of the Berlin Wall, referencing the Commonwealth of Independent States.
Attendees can expect a setlist drawing from their influential discography, including albums like *Maciste contro tutti* and *Tabula Rasa Elettrificata*. The lineup features key members such as Ferretti (vocals), Zamboni (guitar), Gianni Maroccolo (bass), and Francesco Magnelli (keyboards), delivering the intense, atmospheric sound that defined Italian alternative rock in the 1990s.
This concert offers a rare chance to experience the legacy of a band that split in 2001, with members later continuing as Per Grazia Ricevuta. It's a must for fans of Italian indie and those interested in the cultural shifts of post-Cold War Europe.
