FAÇADISMS – Rafael Anton Irisarri
Interestingly released right after the 2024 US Presidential elections, the ideas for Irisarri’s latest LP started germinating in 2016 at a diner in Milan named “il Mito Americano”, or “The American Dream”, but literally translates to “The American myth”. The anticipated album was inspired by the false fronts of Potemkin villages, which Irissari sees as a sort of an analogue to the cruel illusion of ‘freedom’ crafted by the American elites.
