“Small Talks” – Italian emotive post hardcore act REGARDE premiere new captivating song & video!

2 mins read

One of the most interesting acts of the Italian underground scene, REGARDE, have premiered a new music video for the song “Small Talks”. Watch above.

The band has been able to explore themselves and explore different sounds at each release and at the same time create their own distinctive identity in the musical proposals of this country. The four piece from Vicenza present us “Small Talks”, a song that embodies the energy of the band’s first productions and new melodic paths, in a well balanced mixture. This is the second preview of the new album “The Blue And You“, out on January 24th for Epidemic Records and the German Through Love Records.

“Small Talks” represents, together with the previous single “Wide Awake”, a great taste of the new work coming out. A valuable visual created by Michele Bruttomesso comes along with the song.

The band commented the single:

“Sometimes in your life you feel the need to say out loud everything you have on our mind to whoever is in front of you, wether the listener is actually caring for the message or not.
You ask yourself if you choose the right path, if you are becoming the person you’d wanted to be, or if you are just struggling through life for some reason.
But there will come a time you’ll realize you just have to talk straight, being aware that some people will not be able to stand it and that they will rather leave than face the truth.”

Emo indie punks REGARDE release Wide Awake

“The Blue And You” follows two EPs (the first, self-titled of 2014, the year of birth of the band and Perspectives, released in 2015) and it is the heir to the first beautiful full length Leavers (2018), a real turning point in the life of the band, in which the magma bubbling in the core of the group has also been able to consolidate in structures and compositional architecture, capable of best expressing the great potential of Regarde.

While for Leavers Regarde had flown to Boston to work with Jay Maas, for this new effort the four musicians relied on Bob Cooper, producer based in Leeds, who captured the soft soul of some of the melodic passages of the songs and at the same time enhanced the rhythms, which is always calibrated and never exaggerated, a result that Maurizio Baggio’s mastering exhalted in every detail.

Lyrics:

There’s something we should talk about
do you even care?
I’m not aware of it
Is my life enough?
Am i trying way too hard
Are we moving forward?
I remember you said
“just keep on living”
sounds good to me
I guess you won’t be there
There is something you should know
I’m sick of it
there’s no harm in trying
(I’m trying)
What it’s like to be left apart?
but that’s ok
I can fix it if you ask me
(I’m trying)
I’m like the closet in your room
(Am I trying?)
so empty you could hide inside
I remember you said
“just keep on living”
sounds good to me
I guess you won’t be there
There is something you should know
I’m sick of it
there’s no harm in trying
sounds good to me
I’m sick of it
