Los Fastidios formed in Verona (north east Italy) in late 1991 and are led by Enrico, who is the founder of the independent label KOB Records. The current band lineup also features Ciacio (bass/vocals), Mario (guitar/vocals) and Bacchetta (drums) as well as guest vocalist Elisa Dixan.
The Lost Fastidios sound is a powerful melodic street-punk which mixes classical 80’s British Punk-OI! sounds with a lot of skanking moments, and more rock’n’roll and hardcore rhythms. The lyrics are sung in Italian with some touches of English, French, Spanish and German languages. The lyrics come from the most cheerful street situations to more serious and involved matters which deal with social problems, such as battles against racism-fascism and any form of discrimination, for the animal rights, for freedom and against the capitalistic system.
The band has announced a swift seven date UK tour for mid November, which sees them appearing at the Back Beat Bar & Basement at 5 & 6 Western Road, Hove, BN3 1AE on Thursday 14th November, with support coming from Brighton’s very own Dakka Skanks. Grab your tickets HERE.
