Inerdzia

Untitled Document



INERDZIA formed in spring 1995. The first few years were used to get themselves

known both in Italy and abroad. This was thanks to an intensive circuit which

led them to share a stage with the world's greatest punk panorama such as Peter

and The Test Tube Babies and Total Chaos. Further more they played at the Beach

Bum Rock Festival '97 playing with Skunk Anansie, Carmen Consoli and Tre Allegri

Ragazzi Morti and supported the U.K. Subs on their tour of 1999.

In December 1999 INERDZIA 's self-produced first album entitled TU PUOI (You

Can) came out. After the first pressing of the CD sold out it was re-pressed

by the Italian label Pota Records, while the version on cassette was released

only in eastern Europe on the Hungarian label Nemart Records. The support tour

for that album brought even more notoriety both in Italy and abroad. In fact

more and more often the band was invited to play outside Italy, participating

in important festivals such as Monte Paradiso in Pula (Croatia) in 1999 and

the Orto Punk in Ljubljana (Slovenia) in 2001, sharing the stage with bands

of high calibre such as Red London and once again the U.K. Subs and Derozer.

2001 saw the arrival of NEVER MIND THE BORDERS, INERDZIA 's second album, which

came out on Kob Records. INERDZIA 's songs were then also re-issued on Swiss

label Snayle Records with the title NEVER MIND THE ORDERS. The specialized music

press' reviews were excellent and once again the record 's release led to the

group playing over a hundred concerts all over Europe, from Finland to Sicily,

from France to Slovakia thus multiplying their participation in important festivals.

It also led to exhibitions alongside the most important punk bands such as the

English group The Business and the Canadian D.O.A

Between September 2001 and March 2003 the members from INERDZIA played contemporarily

with Los Fastidios recording an album (Guardo Avanti) and two videos (Rabbia

Dentro il Cuore and Animal Liberation). Furthermore they took on a tour which

took in over a hundred dates including Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Poland,

France, The Czech Republic, Croatia, Norway, Sweden, Slovakia, Yugoslavia and

Hungary.

In 2003 a vinyl only EP came out entitled CATTIVI PENSIERI (Evil Thoughts).

From the song Cattivi Pensieri the first video was recorded by INERDZIA which

featured an a programme on Rock Tv. A second vinyl EP entitled NO MERCY ASSHOLE

came out in 2004 on the Swiss label Snayle Records.

In 2005 amongst the numerous Italian and foreign dates the participation in

the Punk Island festival in Dobrohost stands out together with that of Unite

Fest in Prague, respectively the biggest festivals in Slovakia and in the Czech

Republic. Other highlights include playing with the English group Leatherface,

the Americans Stockyard Stoics and the Danes The Movement.

In 2005 the third album SASSO CARTA FORBICE (Paper Scissors Stone) came out.

It was recorded under the artistic direction of Andrea "Spazza" Rigoni

(Derozer 's guitarist) at the SPZ studios in Vicenza. Without a doubt this record

shows a point of maturity for the Padovan trio. The unmistakeable and characteristic

voice of the singer Elena, the rapid aggressive and urgent sound, the cutting

lyrics which are direct and yet poetic are all essential elements in thir latest

production. The album contains eleven original pieces, all sung in Italian.
