CCCP - Fedeli Alla Linea
π Ortodossia II
π Compagni, Cittadini, Fratelli, Partigiani
#PunkRock #PostPunk #ArtPunk #AlternativeRock
40 years ago in undocumented dates, CCCP from #ReggioEmilia, #Italy, released their their debut studio albums, 2 EPs.
Both were published through the indipendent label Attack Punk Records from Bologna and became soon sought after rarities, until Virgin Records re-printed and published them as a Compilation in 1988.
Since their beginnings, the band opted for a drum machine instead of a real drummer.
Danilo Fatur and Annarella are credited as they are in fact the band's theatrical performers.
All songs in here became #CCCP signatures and live standards, some were re-recorded and included in their 1986 debut full-length.
Crazy, Seminal β€οΈβπ₯
In these albums:
#GiovanniLindoFerretti - vocals
#MassimoZamboni - guitar
#UmbertoNegri - bass
#DaniloFatur - "Artista del popolo"
#Annarella - "Benemerita Soubrette"
