Italian Dream Pop Duo Six Impossible Things Release New Single “Twenty Something” And Announce New EP “The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living”
First full band single after two EPs released as a duo
For fans of: Boygenius, Beach House, Ethel Cain
“…weaves a sonic tapestry that juxtaposes hardcore roots with an indie ethos. Imagine the ethereal soundscapes of Beach House colliding with the indie edge of boygenius, all seasoned with the enigmatic enchantment of Ethel Cain, and you’ll begin to grasp the magic of this duo.”- Idioteq
After two EPs as a duo, Six Impossible Things take a major step by involving two more members in the project and thus incorporating a full band sound in its own right.
“Twenty Something”, out Tuesday, June 6, 2023, is the single that ushers in the new direction for the duo, and it is also the first track taken from the forthcoming EP, “The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living”, which will see the light in 2023.
“Twenty Something” is a song in which Six Impossible Things’ now-familiar style, influenced by genres such as dream pop, emo and post-rock, is instantly recognizable, but this time enriched and made fuller by the incorporation of the full band sound. Despite the greater sonic charge, the duo has not lost that almost confessional feeling of intimacy that has always characterized their songs.
The song was written and composed by Lorenzo Di Girolamo, guitarist and one of the band’s two vocalists, who commented:
“I’m entering my thirties next month, so I decided to write and release a song about my twenties. It’s a tribute to the last ten years of my life, and I thought: ‘When, if not now?’.
“This was the only song on the record that was written before the pandemic, and the only song written entirely by me (except for an interlude), so it’s a little bit different when compared to the rest of the EP (weird choice for a single, I know). Nostalgia-soaked lyrics and emo-guitar-driven choruses, instead of the darker approach to the lyrics and melodies that characterize the rest of the songs on the record.”
Six Impossible Things are getting ready to release their third EP, “The Physical Impossibility Of Death In The Mind Of Someone Living”, which will be out in September.
Nicky and Lorenzo wrote and produced the 5-track project, collaborating with producer Maurizio Baggio on vocals, mix and mastering and with musicians from the italian Post-Hardcore bands What We Lost and Sittingthesummerout.
Six Impossible Things is an Italian Dream Pop band formed by Nicky Fodritto and Lorenzo Di Girolamo in 2017 in Lodi.
The band released their first two EPs (“I Tried To Run Away From Here” in 2019 and “Sometimes You Fall Asleep In Front Of Me” in 2021) and toured a lot across Europe, including gigs with Delta Sleep, Hickeys, Flor and many others.
Their third (unreleased) EP “The Physical Impossibility Of Death In The Mind Of Someone Living” is their first full band record, mixed and mastered by Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Merchandise, Messa).
LINE UP:
Nicky Fodritto – Vocals, Keys
Lorenzo Di Girolamo – Vocals, Guitar
Lyrics:
Every night I can’t sleep
and I lay here
rifflin’ through the noise on my phone
I feel lost
and I miss those times
every time it was me and my friends
lost in the middle of something
I still can’t comprehend
I miss those days we used to throw away
I miss those nights: “you know, we’re ‘gonna be fine”
and now those frames of our lives slipped out of our hands
just like the sand
we were twenty-something
we kept on skipping classes
always down to smoke a full pack
and we didn’t give a fuck about anything
yeah we didn’t give a fuck about anything
back then I used to sit in my car
listenin’ to songs no one would hear
alone, consumed by fear
