Our Take

Daniele Luppi and Parquet Courts have joined forces to create Milanoin, a musical journey that is equal parts bizarre and brilliant. Luppi's lush, orchestral compositions serve as the perfect backdrop for the quirky, off-kilter lyrics and infectious energy of Parquet Courts.

From the moment the album kicks off with "Soul and Cigarette," you know you're in for a wild ride. The track is a perfect blend of Luppi's cinematic flair and Parquet Courts' raw, punk sensibilities. It sets the tone for an album that is as unpredictable as it is captivating.

Tracks like "Woman in Stripes" and "Mount Napolean" showcase the eclectic range of influences at play on Milanoin. Luppi's intricate arrangements dance beautifully with Parquet Courts' frenetic energy, creating a sound that is truly unique.

But it's not all fun and games on Milanoin. Songs like "Mount Napolean" and "The Golden Ones" delve into darker themes of isolation and longing, adding a layer of depth to an otherwise light-hearted album.

Overall, Milanoin is a triumph of collaboration. Luppi and Parquet Courts have managed to create something truly special here, a blend of genres and styles that shouldn't work but somehow does. It's a bold, adventurous album that demands to be listened to from start to finish. Don't miss out on this one.
