Go check out “Coraline” (heartbreaking ballad about a girl who grew up with huge insecurities in an unfriendly environment and great sensitivity to whom the singer offers a possibility to open up to him, pure poetry) and “Vent'anni” (“Twenty years”, it’s along the lines of In nome del Padre, talks about the youth who isn’t taken seriously by others when they talk about their dreams, especially if that dream is to become a musician/artist, 10/10 very angry) if you haven’t already!

He states that he won’t forget the past and all the people who doubted him, looked at him as if he was insane or didn’t take him or his passion seriously because of his young age, that he’ll never stop aiming for the sky ( Toccare il cielo e tornare a mangiare asfalto trad. “I died more than one hundred times, but never in vain”). IN NOME DEL PADRE (“In the name of the Father”) is angry, sleazy and sinful, just like Damiano comparing himself to Jesus Christ in the lyrics for all the times he “died” (ergo the failed attempts to break through as a musician or, more generally, all the hardship he went through his life) but every time it was worth it ( Son morto più di cento volte, mai morto invano trad. God speed beautiful you bastards, can’t wait to see you at the top of the world The lyrics are what I wish I could write Damiano’s voice is what I wish I sounded like their instrumentals is what I wish my life was like their aesthetic is how I wish I could dress like. What’s more to say about Måneskin? I’ve known them for ten seconds and they’re already consuming my life.
