Almost six years after the last recording job Due, the Portfolios are back. No boredom, no pastel tones, no alternative bad luck, no skip… arrogant, arrogant, pretentious and obnoxious as the characters that populate it – the new record of the Reggio band, entitled Stefi Wonder, is made of 8 songs that split and they move between pop, funk, soul, and rock. More direct, homogeneous and close to the song form than in the past; not for this reason less personal. Hot in the sounds, sincere in intentions and stuffed with so much irony-filth: a kick in the ass to the indie-Italic clichés, with the best mainstream intentions. Province of Emilia meets California.
