Semiramis Release “Tenda Rossa” Lyric Video

Semiramis have released a lyric video for their single, “Tenda Rossa,” the first song taken from their album, La fine non esiste. The band notes that the image of the Airship Italia standing out against “Tenda Rossa” (Red Tent) is the song subject.

The track is about the Italian long-haul aviator Mr Umberto Nobile, who wanted to “Cercare l’impossibile” (look for the impossible) in 1928 but unfortunately crashed with his airship on the North Pole. Nobile managed to survive together with a few of his crew thanks to the red tent.

The lyrics celebrate, illustrate, question: “dov’è la verità di quel disastro? “(where does the truth about that disaster lie?); music, on the other hand, tries to describe the characters’ feelings: anguish, terror, resignation and final relief in a pure prog evolution.
