Il Castello Delle Uova - Appunti Sonori per una cosmogonia caotica

Il Castello delle Uova was formed in Marsala (Italy) in 1999. The band was founded by Pietro Li Causi (guitar and loops), Salvatore Sinatra (keyboards and loops) and Abele Gallo (drums), who previously have played for BraindeaD, an important prog-band of Western-Sicily scene. The name "il castello delle uova" means "the castle of the eggs", a sort of oxymoron which recalls the idea of space, structure, power and - together - frailty.

Their debut album is "Appunti sonori per una cosmogonia caotica" (Sonic Sketches for a Chaotic Cosmogony) which gives sonic space to the words of a cosmicomic poem (written by Li Causi), where the beginning of the world perpetually coincides with its end. The band's influences include King Crimson, Bill Frisell, Massimo Volume, Area, Raymond Queneau, Eliano, Virgilio, Luciano Berio, and Ludovico Einaudi. 

Studio Album, released in 2007
