Heroin In Tahiti

14/01/12 Type: Release - Genre: death surf drone

Heron In Tahiti is a duo composed by Valerio Mattioli (AAVV Videos, Thetlvmth) and Francesco De Figuereido (Opium Child), both hailing from the so named “Borgata Boredom” scene, a sort of local community based in “Roma Est” (East Rome), the crumbling and deteriorated neighborhoods which were already immortalized by Pasolini and Neorealist Cinema (think of Pasolini, De Sica, Visconti etc).
The duo plays a variety of cheap guitars, analog synths, drum machines and pedals, achieving a dirtiness which is tragically lo-fi and out-of-time at the same time: a “Spaghetti Wasteland”, as they call it.

Their debut album is called “Death Surf” and will be published by Boring Machines on february 2012.
It will be a vinyl-only release limited to 300 copies.

On bandcamp there are 3 songs in preview

“Death Surf” it’s like watching a surfer riding a wave that moves in slow motion, while you’re drinking an acid cocktail.
“Ex Giants On Dope” could be the soundtrack to a western movie set in a Polynesian beach, scene of a nuclear disaster.
“Sartana” is a propitiatory dance to ask for acid rain that will eliminate human insanity.
