Freckles 03:41
A December of argentine reflections Widens her sight on open plains Where her eyes, never full May continue to dance Like herds on a boundless range A gold season finds her in the sun, Familiar hands never stop stroking her It reminds her of bonds Shouts of how much room Is still there by their side She embraces the world And the red earth That dirties her skin With small freckles “Your teacher is crazy, your teacher lost her mind” But it’s all the rest that loses her each time Piles of books for both With the same dust But different shores to dream on She’s a contagious waltz That goes around and around and around

Do you remember all the chances? Do you remember when the best was dreaming? When did you stop your journey? When did you forget you’re not like other people? It’s not a lie It’s not a joke It’s not a cry for the old times Believe me I’m not a fake I’m not insane I’ve only found you again And it’s beautiful bleeding But the stranger fact is I’m ready for the fall Ready to embrace you And loose you again Do you remember all the laughs? Do you remember when the best was walking in the sun? When did you stop your questions? When did you accept one only way of life? It’s not a fairy tale It’s not a romance It’s not a stupid game I’m limping blind, believe me We know the truth We know the only thing to do ‘cause that embrace Was the limit for us Think of me I’ll be that regret You’ll rock In the loneliness Of your room

In a song 03:34
Time It’s time to be reborn in a song Time to understand That everything is open again Time Time to make up your mind and act Time to say thanks to them For all the magic sadness Don’t you worry boy Say: “I’m sorry” Go on crying Watching the skyline Don’t you worry if you have regrets It’s ok ’cause you’re human Jumping, jumping Dancing, dancing Arms to the sky in an unforgettable night Three hands on your shoulders to comfort you Time To deserve a new quiet night There’s time again To dream upon the keys of a piano Time Enough to grow, enough to know That an embrace Can be made of silence and notes

I get your skin I get your smile I get your love Just in my mind Today in the ancient city Along the river side Here’s my secret garden Without flowers, without you Walking towards my greenhouse It’s the old way of the sprites I see the way You talk to me I see your body I crave your kiss Today in the ancient city When a cold wind is blowing Like the lost ways of our hearts A wrong hope Rises in my heart I know it’s time To burn your words Today in the ancient city Where the sky is falling down
5.
Even more 04:15
I want you to stay close to me I know I may be selfish But it’s like this every day Every day goes around Every dumb, deafening day The moment will come for me It’ll ask me for a bit of my time All the time remaining To join us even more And so we celebrate a new birth ‘Cause now I’m looking for your reflection In every shape surrounding me And then everything shows its meaning I wanna dream of you Like sometimes in those days We hold ourselves tight for hours I wanna turn these moments Into eternity in that you don’t believe in I wanna make you believe in this eternity ‘Cause there are some loves That open their way through it Straight to the middle

Stripes 04:28
…And time after time I’m gonna fuck my time Today if you fly away I slowly die You climb over the wall But I know: “It’s better to destroy it” Day 1, day 2…Prisoner 5 A hundred days to make only stripes Day 3, 4…Prisoner 5 A thousand years to make only stripes Never knows Never blessing Never kind of magic Never wants Never hurts me Never scent of memory Flow away… …And time after time I’m learning to waste time Tonight you have flown I’ve slowly died Everything is nothing and oblivion We can only dream
7.
Step aside, underground You must work, harder If you wanna live If you wanna die In a swamp city And you’ll never be lonely You’ll never taste emptiness Step into a good job A place where you can go on sleeping Then pick up a nice girl A lot of sundays wait for you If you wanna live If you wanna die If you wanna suck the pith of life Teach your children the rules now A lot of smiles wait for you Step this way, please

A cold winter is closing the doors The sun of June never warms it up Let’s go now, the car starts up We have been up since the sunrise “Trousers too long for those shoes, Jacket must be shortened The great event is drawing near: Shave and cut your hair” Memories are so true And no winter will ever waste them Too too cold here, but I feel good Kisses and embraces to the relatives The giants play with little cars Let’s bring the gift to those who are waiting Let’s pack the bags for our journey A million rushes following the same ball Never-ending tales in never passing time Like a never expressed desire The silent whisper of the night It’s speakin’ about old hopes and dreams But nobody can hear it now Memories are so true And no winter will ever waste them Too too cold here, but i feel good But it feels good
9.
Raining tears along the road On your return’s day And through the trip after the war You search for a place in the sun When all the faces are turning round Leaving you alone Finally the door of your dear home “Welcome old friend, smile at me” Forget the past Photographs, arms, nights, innocence, smell, cities No more dependence Only a deep valley, an hidden bay, your fireplace I know in a safe place you are You look around all the old things Pictures of your life The window where you sit alone Cold winter in your heart The bedroom where you sleep tonight With lost dreams It’s the same world, it’s the same life The only difference is love
10.
If you want direction Because you got lost If you’re hungry for care We’re here for you If you’re howling along the road And no one turns around While you’re bleeding teardrops We stand by you We are smiling We have got a flag Bearing all your faces And we’re waving it Half a finger of your left hand Will do to be reborn And there’s no danger We’re master surgeons So in the friendly silence Of all your dark nights Thieves will keep out Of your open door

about

“So che sei in un posto sicuro”.
Poche e semplici parole racchiudono l'idea di musica dei 7 Training Days.
IN A SAFE PLACE, disco d'esordio della band composta da Achille Fiorini (chitarra), Giovanni Ignagni (batteria), Simone Ignagni (voce e chitarra), e Antonio Tortorello (basso), è un viaggio in dieci tappe attraverso luoghi fisici e immaginari, in bilico tra emotività e analisi sociale.
L'impronta indie rock è contrastata da una forte spinta melodica, non estranea a quelle contaminazioni che hanno fatto grandi alcune delle band di riferimento del gruppo: R.E.M., Wilco, Low, The National, Nada Surf, Pearl Jam.
IN A SAFE PLACE è il punto di arrivo di quattro storie musicali, le cui radici affondano nel terreno fertile del rock dei primi anni ’90.
I risultati sono stati demo tapes dalle svariate impronte musicali.
Finalmente, nell'estate del 2006, Antonio, Simone, Achille e Giovanni si sono incontrati su un terreno comune, e hanno deciso di fondere idee ed influenze per dar vita a una nuova proposta in cui cercare di coniugare il piglio originale del rock alternativo (di matrice newyorchese ma con chiari rimandi anche all’Inghilterra del post brit-pop) e un certo classicismo proveniente dal sottobosco americano.

Il corpus dei brani ha preso forma attraverso numerose tappe live, appuntamenti che i 7 Training Days hanno utilizzato sia come banco di prova per testare la reale forza comunicativa delle canzoni, sia come espressione di un approccio artistico naturalmente legato al contatto con il palco.
7 giorni di preparazione non è solo un accostamento di parole che in inglese ha un buon suono.
Si tratta piuttosto del primo modo di descrivere l’approccio che, da sempre, caratterizza la band. L’esigenza di non lasciare alcun dettaglio al caso, la dedizione nel voler creare un mondo musicale coerente che parli per le persone che animano il progetto, e attraverso cui passi la loro visione del mondo. L’attenzione (spesso estrema) al dettaglio in questo senso diventa elemento fondamentale per far corrispondere tutto e delineare con precisione i contorni di un concetto artistico ben definito.
Cura e preparazione insomma, aberrando una sterile fretta, ispirandosi all’approccio di un grande maestro delle arti visive come Stanley Kubrick, che faceva del suo lavoro una vera e propria missione, da portare avanti nel giusto tempo, quello di cui i suoi progetti avevano bisogno.

“Tempo… è tempo di rinascere in una canzone”.

Recorded and mixed by Andrea Stanisci at Niski Studio, Ferentino (Fr)
