HEGEL SAYS NOTHING ABOUT DESPERATE SUNDAYS Florence is burning. And I find nothing better than a clothing store to search for inspiration. "But here there's only bore and conditioned air!" This is depressing. This is depressing. And my heart warns: "Move or I will fall!" I could throw myself in the arms of a tourist. And cry: "Mister, won't you tell me how I can save a desperate Sunday? Hegel says nothing about. And summer radios keep spreading summer love songs. They're so intrusive. They seem to know about me. This is outrageous. This is outrageous. And my heart warned: "Move or I will fall!" So I throw myself in the arms of a tourist. And cry: "Mister, won't you tell me how I can save a desperate Sunday?"

Domestic 04:52
DOMESTIC Welcome mat, I rely on you. Will you keep them away? Will you keep them away from me? Coffee pot, I rely on you. I don't want fall asleep. Keep pouring caffeine. Until the house falls down on us I will remain with you. Telephone, I rely on you. Will you hang up to them? Will you hang up to them for me? Stripped bed, I rely on you. If I should fall asleep take me in. Take me in. Until the house falls down on us I will remain with you. But here they have come! I hear them climbing on the terrace and pressing against the windows. "We go to disco! What are you going to do?" Oh, I love discos! When they are closed. So I hide into the cupboard and pretend to be a tea set. I'm domestic tonight.

EVERY TIME I MISS YOU MY SONGBOOK REJOICES Say my love. Is there enough space in your heart to hold the both of us? Caroline said that you were sleeping in Brick Lane. I came. But you were not there. I missed you again. I missed you again. Commonplaces about artistic deeds say creation needs some melancholy. If this is true, then I have just composed my eighty fourth declaration of woe. I missed you again. I missed you again. Say my love. Is there enough space in your heart to hold the both of us? Augustine said that you were crying in Leicester Square. I came. But you were not there. I missed you again. I missed you again. And if I don't find you soon I will drown in my songbook. Commonplaces about artistic deeds say creation needs some melancholy. If this is true, then I have just composed my eighty fifth declaration of woe. Now Adam says that you are begging in Edgware. I come. My love, I come.

Nocturne 03:08
NOCTURNE Look how Eveline drowse soothed by domestic lights. As ink seals up the books and specific weights increase. Again, she comes again to give the peace to all of us. But what an excessive grace! For who could stand the gravity of a whole civilization asleep?! Again, she comes again to give the peace to all of us. But we can't receive.

about

NOVEMBER 2009. When Una realizes that his skills and musical equipments are criminally inadequate to give his songs a decent shape, he decides to entrust the challenge to Diego Boboli, who revives the gasping work with new arrangments and takes the burden of the mixing-and-production labour.

SEPTEMBER 2010. After a year in the Domestic Studios ( an excessive amount of time for just four songs?) the Domestic EP is finished and about to be released - if only the packaging was delivered with a reasonable promptness. NOVEMBER 1st 2010. Farewell to Hearth and Home are immoderately proud to announce the release of the long awaited "Domestic EP".

about

Farewell to Hearth and Home Firenze, Italy

Generated by an accidental gathering-and-sedimentation process of nomad musicians around the glorious Legri's Farm, Farewell to Hearth and Home are Athos Molteni, Diego Boboli, Marco Balducci, Francesco Fanciullacci, Nicola Beneventi and Emma Lanza. Cautious commentors marked their musical outcomes as reassuring “indie rock”; the most audacious forged the bizarre label of “rural folk wave”. ... more
