If you loved U.M.A., if you loved oltreLuna, brace yourself for the next space voyage finely crafted by Progenie Terrestre Pura. In starCross you will find once again the signature industrial/electronic/black metal sound which brought the Italian band under the spotlight, but inflected in a profoundly different way. qTp keep on experimenting in their EPs, and just as 2014 Asteroidi was an all-ambient release, starCross is a dark, obscure conceptual work recounting an original tale. Mastermind Davide Colladon wrote a full storyline for this EP, as “starCross represents a further evolutionary step of qTp, and its sound is extremely connected to the story it tells, which is pretty dark. My intention was to recall thrilling sci-fi masterworks such as Ridley Scott’s Alien, Grant Morrison’s Nameless and the Dead Space videogame saga”. To offer a better comprehension of the release, starCross also marks the first qTp release ever sung in English. In the beyond-Moon journeys era, in a sector not mapped yet, the scouting ship A.S. Mori follows an unknown signal coming from a distant moon. Embrace fear, madness and despair in the darkest Progenie Terrestre Pura work to date, and prepare yourself for what might be your last trip across the stars.
