Six Red Carpets, Nightmares + Lullabies, auto produit, 2008
Le livret qui accompagne le disque Nightmares + Lullabies dessiné par Simona Maniello dégage une ambiance lovecraftienne ; c'est ce qui m'a donné envie d'y jeter une oreille. Le noyau dur des Six Red Carpets est composé de Mills, Majlco et Leaf, il propose un pop rock mélodique aérien basse, guitare, batterie avec quelques synthés pas envahissants du tout. Rien de très original, mais une voix (qui devient trop répétitive et trop mièvre à la longue), un concept et une ambiance. Le groupe propose le téléchargement gratuit de l'intégralité de l'album et du livret sur leur site. Les tounes Angel's Vanity et I Was Here pourraient bien devenir des tubes dans certains auto-radios qui lorgnent du côté du rock japonais ou du progressif. Un groupe dont on prendra soin de suivre l'évolution malgré un côté qui penche vers le rock FM notamment sur l'agaçante The Dream Of Billy Kate et la très mauvaise Bring me noise avec envolées à la Kenny ratées de chez planté - n'est pas le chanteur de Radiohead qui veut - qui plombent la fin de Nightmares + Lullabies en plongeant l'auditeur dans un vrai cauchemar.

Six Red Carpets - Nightmares + Lullabies
La matrice da cui prende forma “Nightmares + Lullabies” dei Six Red Carpets è nota: è quella musica un po’ adolescenziale che abbiamo suonato un po’ tutti quanti con il nostro gruppetto nel garage di casa: quel rock un po’ sporco e un po’ melodico, tra il grunge e il pop, tra distorsione e melodia.. ebbene, vi piacerebbe scoprire come sarebbe andata se voi e il vostro gruppetto foste stati bravi e talentuosi come pochi? Ascoltate i Six Red Carpets allora!
Prendete quella musica un po’ ‘ibrida’ che conosciamo tutti, e mettetela da parte. Preparate una gustosa salsa con sabbia, vetri infranti, foglie accartocciate d’autunno, miele, poesie nel vento, schegge di chitarra stagionata e coperte calde. Cospargetela abbondante ed ecco pronto un album molto ben fatto, lungo quello che basta per sentirsene avvolti, che crea un momento di riflessione in chi ascolta, come passeggiare di fretta per andare a sbrigare qualche faccenda, alzare lo sguardo e fermarsi a guardare il mare con il vento freddo che sbatte sulle guance.
Forse non è una musica ‘necessaria’, ma è una stupenda musica ‘accessoria’, come un lusso che chiunque può concedersi in grande quantità, come un regalo inaspettato ma molto apprezzato, ed è infatti sotto questa forma che i six red carpets hanno sapientemente diffuso il loro lavoro, come recita il sito ufficiale, infatti: It’s absolutely free, it’s virusless, it’s spamless! It’s FREE and it’s for YOU!, ed è proprio questa sensazione di essere stato concepito, suonato, registrato, prodotto solo ed esclusivamente per il puro piacere e godimento del pubblico che aggiunge la giusta piacevolezza all’intero album. La libera diffusione rende questo lavoro già molto buono assolutamente irrinunciabile.

Flying In From Milan It's...
Flying In From Milan It's...
Six Red Carpets
Genre: Rock / Alternative
From: Milan, Italy
Italian trio Six Red Carpets have taken a leaf out of the Radiohead book in releasing their debut album 'Nightmares & Lullabies' as a free download via their website. Yes that's free, gratis, without the need to part with any money! And there's not even an honesty box in which to deposit any of your virtual currency!
Whilst this was considered a bit of a risk for a band with the international profile, back catalogue and impressively large and loyal fanbase of Radiohead it's tantamount to commercial suicide for an unknown Italian band making their way in the cut throat music industry.
Unsurprisingly the bands free release has been received with a little more than a bored yawn compared to the world wide fanfare and 'new musical commercial model' hyperbole that accompanied the release of Radioheads' 'In Rainbows' .
But gradually the blogging community has started to cotton on (check out Six Red Carpets - The Dream Of Billy Kite on MP3 Hugger earlier this month), started to twig that if the best things in life are free then 'Nightmares & Lullabies' with it's late 80s alternative rock affectations recalling Smashing Pumpkins in their pomp is no exception. The band even manage to make a track that reminds this critic of 'Message in a Bottle' by The Police ('Angels' Vanity') sound like a must have addition to any music lovers collection.

Six Red Carpets - Nightmares + Lullabies
Six Red Carpets - Nightmares + Lullabies

(J’ai décidément la cote auprès des groupes inconnus américains : après Sarah SabDAU, le groupe Six Red Carpets m’a contacté cette nuit pour diffuser dans son intégralité son album, mais comme il est bon, autant le chroniquer par la même occasion)
Que pouvons / devons-nous savoir de Six Red Carpets outre leur nationalité outre-atlantique ? Il sont plutôt du genre altruistes, puisqu’ils n’hésitent pas à proposer dans son intégralité et en très bonne qualité leur album 100% fait maison “Nightmares + Lullabies” : un des avantages de ne pas être signé - encore - sur un label. Pourtant, l’on se demande pour quelle raison cette dite signature n’a pas encore été possible, puisque tout y est : un véritable univers, un son très personnel, un album construit autour d’une histoire (ahhh les concept albums, ça manquait), un fil conducteur distillé à travers 13 titres, une voix captivante, des choeurs bien placés et qui font mouche, un ebooklet bien foutu - tout en pastel, rappelant fortement l’univers de Burton, voire la série déjantée Lenore, Cute Little dead Girl … le tout pour donc, histoire d’en remettre une couche, 0 euro.
Download Nightmares + Lullabies (105 mo)
Ce rock (voire pop, après réécoute) mélodique fait dans l’efficacité la plus totale, sans pour autant s’affranchir de subtilités prenant souvent la forme d’arpèges discrètes agrémentée d’effets flanger d’une autre époque, ou encore quelques nappes quasi effacées mais arrangées pour se fondre à la brutalité de certains riffs. Bien qu’américain, le combo sonne davantage comme un groupe britannique : il suffit d’écouter Here’s to the Nightmare ou encore Run Over Free pour s’en convaincre (seul le côté ultra gras de la guitare façon Les Paul peut trahir l’origine)

Au delà d’une très bonne surprise, Nightmares + Lullabies, réalisé, mixé et produit par Six Red Carpets (on n’est jamais aussi bien servi que par soi-même) est à écouter (en 1 traite et dans l’ordre, si possible), à découvrir, à télécharger, à diffuser, comme peut le laisser sous-entendre leur message envoyé :
It’s not a virus or crap like that ,so you shouldn’t be afraid, give us a chance to be listened by you.
Click on our website www.sixredcarpets.com to download a folder in which you’ll find the 13 tracks, the e-booklet and a short story we’ve written to introduce its concept.
You can use our .mp3 as you want, and if you think it’s a good idea you can share our music with your friends, or mailing list, or making a review of the album; you can also leave a comment on our myspace page (www.myspace.com/sixredcarpets), let us know what you think about it.
We want you to know that we’ve done everything by ourselves: we’ve produced everything of this album, we’ve recorded, we’ve mixed, we’ve mastered (… and paid for the copyright of the tracks…)…but we bet you’ll like the results of all the work we’ve done.
We don’t have any label or production yet, so we appreciate any kind of Help and Support and we’re ready to any kind of collaboration.
Take care,
Six Red Carpets

Six Red Carpets
Six Red Carpets
I thought I’d offer up something sort of new today: I got an email the other day from Italy’s Six Red Carpets telling me about their debut disk, Nightmares + Lullabies.
At first glance, this trio didn’t seem like the kind of music I’m usually interested in. It falls somewhere between pop and rock – kind of alternative, kind of not – maybe a little indie. But I found something in the songs on the Six Red Carpets MySpace that made me stop and go back for a second listen. The band recorded, mixed, mastered, and produced Nightmares + Lullabies themselves and it has a sort of raw, DIY feel to it. The music is instantly catchy. Singer Mills has a nasally voice that, for some strange reason, brings to mind the way Scorpions vocalist Klaus Meine sounded many years ago.The album was actually released June 28, so it’s been out a while – the band working the blogosphere to promote it. They’re also giving it away, as part of a downloadable package that includes an e-booklet, a video, and a short story that attempts to explain the concept behind the album. I’ll let you check that out and interpret the meaning yourself.
In the meantime, check out these songs. If you like what you’re hearing – and I think you might – go the Six Red Carpets’ MySpace and you can get it gratis.

Six Red Carpets - Nightmares + Lullabies

The Six Red Carpets are a 3-piece band out of Italy. I know of very few bands out of Italy and at best I don’t think there’s a booming indie scene in Italy, at least it’s not known for that. The Six Red Carpets have gone to great lengths in attempts to promote their music. First off their album is available free on their website. They are currently signed to no label and are promoting their LP Nightmares + Lullabies by themselves.
They actually asked me for some advice on promoting their records, I had no really meaningful advice. I said to just play gigs and go to more blogs in hopes of reaching more people and gaining more fans. I might have said to possibly move to better locale but that’s kind of a mean thing to say… and not as easy as well.
I have a hard time describing their music, it’s not pop and it’s more of a straight up alternative style of rock, someone like The Hold Steady reminds me of them. I also liked what I heard from their myspace and they sound far from being raw despite being different from the typical pop rock band that generally gets me hooked.
The Six Red Carpets have a great range of music on their album, they make it hard to pin point a certain sound they have. They are rarely all over the place at the same time and I think I enjoyed listening to this music as if it were a post-rock outfit. The vocals are a little tough to listen to, it’s almost contrasting as he sings in a semi high voice that sticks out in on the subtleness of the music. I started disliking the vocals as I listened to the album more and more, lyrically I’m unsure of what affect it has on the music as well.
The album is very very solid, great for a band without a label and going through with the DIY route. I think the problem they have for now is that they don’t do anything specifically great to propel them to instant success. It would be wise if they slowly built up a fan base as best as they can and see if they can hook up with a label, perhaps move to a better location to play shows. Otherwise it’s tough for a band that doesn’t make pop music to do well based on internet hype.
The Six Red Carpets make great music and hopefully they can garner some more fans and success.
Rating: 3.75 out of 5.

Six Red Carpets: Nightmares + Lullabies

Na aber gern doch, vor allem dann, da die Italiener Majlco, Mills und Leaf ganz feinen Alternativrock, der mich sehr an die guten Zeiten der Smashing Pumpkins erinnert, abliefern.
Six Red Carpets - Fall Asleep
Download: Nightmares + Lullabies (ZIP) »
Links: Band | MySpace | last.fm
Six Red Carpets: Nightmares + Lullabies (download gratuito)
Oggi voglio presentarvi il primo disco dei Six Red Carpets, un gruppo rock alternativo italiano emergente. Sono in tre - Majlco, Mills e Leaf i loro pseudonimi - e cantano interamente in inglese. Da poco hanno pubblicato il loro primo album, "Nightmares + Lullabies", e lo offrono in download gratuito a chiunque abbia voglia di ascoltarlo. Non hanno ancora una casa discografica alle spalle, perciò il disco è stato interamente autoprodotto dalla band; ma non bisogna pensare che, per questo, esso possa essere un lavoro amatoriale. Già, perché l'album è ben fatto e comprende anche uno splendido booklet. Questo disco costituisce un'ottima base di partenza; le premesse per andare avanti ci sono tutte. La musica dei Six Red Carpet è un rock trascinante, pieno di energia ma insieme melodico. "Nightmares + Lullabies" si ascolta piacevolmente e sono diverse le canzoni degne di nota, che restano in mente e vien voglia di riascoltare. Una su tutte "Angel's Vanity", tra le migliori, perfetto esempio di quanto detto prima: è gagliarda, grintosa, ed ha una melodia che facilmente si fissa in testa. Batteria e chitarre si fanno sentire e fanno la loro parte da protagonisti, azzeccati gli assoli di chitarra. La voce del cantante, a tratti, ricorda un po' quella di Billy Corgan, cantante degli Smashing Pumpkins, ma mantiene i tratti personali ed è ben riconoscibile. Bello anche il brano di apertura del disco, "The Weaver Call", esclusivamente strumentale; nel suo leggero crescendo lascia ben sperare per il prosieguo del disco.
"Fall Asleep" esprime tensione, forse anche una certa disperazione, con il suo ritmo, i riff taglienti ed il contrasto tra le due voci, per concludersi poi con la voce calma e profonda del "tessitore di sogni". "Vanilla Scent" mette da parte i suoni duri, è particolarmente dolce, la voce si calma, si inseriscono archi aggraziati ed emozionanti, suoni delicati. Una canzone che intenerisce chi l'ascolta.
La chiusura del disco spetta alla tranquilla "Asphalt Song", la quale assolve egregiamente il suo compito: chitarra acustica, voce e pochi altri suoni compongono un ottimo brano, che lascia l'ascoltatore con la voglia di riascoltare tutto da capo.
Insomma "Nightmares + Lullabies" è proprio un bel disco, che si apprezza appieno se ascoltato più volte. Un lavoro che fa ben sperare per il futuro di questi ragazzi, per la loro carriera. Intanto non resta che spargere la voce. Perciò correte a scaricare l'album e, se vi piace, consigliatelo agli amici.
Ecco la lista dei brani:
The Weaver Call
Twenty Two an The Charm of Gravity
Words Forgetting, Words Forgot
Fall Asleep
Here's to the Nightmare
Angel's Vanity
Run over Free
Deep Down in Water
Vanilla Scent
I was There
The Dream of Billy Kite
Bring Me Noise
Asphalt Song

Dalla serie...OGGI VI CONSIGLIO UN DISCO...n.101
"Nightmares + Lullabies" dei Six Red Carpets
Concedetemi due righe prima di parlare del disco: si ricomincia!
Troppo tempo è passato dal disco n.100, ma c'era bisogno di una pausa, necessaria per riprendere fiato, ascoltare musica e far risalire in superficie la voglia di descrivere le emozioni che suscitano in me determinati ascolti...non parlerei di recensioni, per quelle siete già abbastanza sommersi da internet e giornali specializzati, tediosi discorsi su cosa va e cosa non va, su cosa è vero e cosa no, sensazionalismi ciclici sui nuovi "mettetequiilnomechevolete" ecc ecc.
Beh, si parte...
Incubi e ninnananne, quale titolo migliore per un disco sospeso tra cielo, nuvole e madre terra? Un viaggio onirico fatto di caldi abbracci, carezze, melodie e sorrisi distesi...non ci sono sussulti, nonostante gli incubi del titolo, solo cambi di tempo incalzanti, non eccessivi per fortuna, atmosfere che si intrecciano in esperienze sonore care alle mie amate zucche, ma non rimangono li a compiacersi...si evolvono, si rincorrono e si ritrovano, per la gioia del cuore e il suo conforto...lasciarsi andare è fantastico, viaggiare per non arrivare mai e gustarsi il viaggio, le immagini che ci scorrono davanti si ripetono e ci fanno sentire a casa anche se il paesaggio è sconosciuto...Mills sussura come una sirena per ammaliarci e resistere è impossibile, trasportati da una leggerezza nuova è bello chiudere gli occhi e continuare a vedere...anche se tutto si fa un pò più cupo, qualche nuvola all'orizzonte, i toni si abbassano e iniziano ad accendersi le prime luci della sera...il mare borbotta, avverto le onde che si infrangono in flutti spumosi e il fragore mi sorprende in un vortice di colori e suoni...c'è un pò di inquietitudine, dove è finita quella calma che infondeva sicurezza? non sono spaventato, ma non vedo più riferimenti, sudo freddo e tutto scorre più veloce...dove sono? a casa, le mura mi sono vicine e mi rimboccano le coperte, mi giro per riprendere il sogno dove l'avevo lasciato e come sempre non è più lì ad aspettarmi..

Six Red Carpets - Vanilla Scent
As much as I try to stick with the old way of picking up entire records, I’m finding myself drawn more and more to single tracks. I’m meticulous about archiving all of my mp3s and try and keep full albums together if at all possible. But lately I’ve been using shuffle pretty often and I tend to end up listening to a lot of crap in my collection, i.e. songs from comps, tracks that were recorded live and sound horrible, or bands that I really only liked one or two songs but I still imported the entire record. That’s a little bit of the case with the new Six Red Carpets release. First off, they are putting the entire record out there for free in a multitude of formats, so I have to applaud them for that. A lot of bands are starting to do that, but these guys actually have songs worth downloading, this one in particular, which was the first track I heard off of the record. My biggest complaint is the rest of the tracks on the record go in a bit of a different direction, or directions would be more precises. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of focus on what they are going for except the persistent overtone of that Smashing Pumpkinssound throughout. It’s worth downloading to check out the entire record, but you may find yourself a bit letdown after hearing this song. I can’t complain too much though, they certainly aren’t the first band who had a “hit single” and the rest of the record was average.

FROM SAMUELE SILVA BLOG

Internet è ormai diventato il vero trampolino di lancio per molta musica. Tanti gruppi e cantautori propongono i loro dischi nella speranza di ottenere audience, pubblicità e magari contratti. I Six Red Carpets non sfuggono a questa logica: ho ricevuto una mail che mi invitava ad ascoltarli, gratis, e non mi sono lasciato sfuggire l'occasione. Il gruppo è composto da tre elementi (Mills, Majlco e Leaf), sono di Milano ma cantano, parlano e scrivono in inglese. Hanno prodotto tutto loro: non deve essere facile e onore al merito. Ho ascoltato poche volte il disco ma la prima impressione è ottima: il loro è un sound particolare, un rock lento. Non voglio sfuggire alla logica del paragone famoso, dicono che non si deve fare, ma al sottoscritto ricordano molto i Radiohead (che poi magari sto dicendo un'assurdità). La mia traccia preferita è sicuramente 'Here's to the Nightmare', un rock melodico ma aggressivo. Il consiglio è di scaricare ed ascoltare: suona strano ma è legale!

FROM LOCALVERTICAL by Chris
Six Red Carpets has released their first album, Nightmares + Lullabies, produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered solely by the band at their expense as they don't have a label. The Italian alt-rockers have hit on something truly unique, with an album featuring 13 tracks that will have you drawing comparisons to bands from The Clash to U2 to Porcupine Tree. Band members Majlco, Mills and Leaf are tremendous in their combinations of edgy guitars, effects and vocals. The entire album is available as a free download, we'll start you off with a couple of the best from the EP here. Highly recommended...likely one of the best bands you've never heard of.by Chris on http://localvertical.blogspot.com
FROM MUJERRENACENTISTA

Increíble las cosas que uno se encuentra en Internet, y más si es un music geek. Les presento al grupo Six Red Carpets, originario de Italia. No conozco a ciencia cierta de qué parte de Italia son, ni cómo los encontré, sólo recuerdo que estaba en MySpace, haciendo nada, y vi un grandísimo “Regalamos nuestro CD!” que, obviamente, me despertó la curiosidad. Al principio pensé que “Nightmares+Lullabies” era un virus pero realmente es un freebie de esos que uno no puede perderse.
Six Red Carpets es un grupo EXTREMADAMENTE desconocido, imagínense que no tienen más de 9000 visitas en su sitio de Myspace y aparte de eso su canal de Youtube no tiene más de 36 vistas.
Con un sonido levemente psicodélico y a la vez crudo, el disco es cantado en inglés, es completamente gratis y de paso es música indie en su máxima expresión. Es más, le meten mucho sonido alternativo, lo que simplemente consolida todavía más la ya conocida fórmula indie-alternativa que nunca cansa.
Para que estén segur@s de que quieren bajar el CD, les dejo un video de Six Red Carpets tocando en vivo, aparentemente en la sede de un show de radio de Italia:
VIDEO
Además, les presento el video de su canción The dream of Billy Kite. No es la mejor animación que he visto (es más, esa boca del personaje principal parece un simple hueco que se expande y se cierra), pero permite sentir la imágen y overall feeling que el grupo quiere proyectar.
VIDEO
PUEDEN BAJAR EL CD AQUÍ
(página oficial del grupo)
Se me olvidó decir algo importante: no sólo es un CD con trece canciones, si no que también incluye el Ebooklet y una breve historia introductoria al CD escrita por ellos mismos. Nice!
