Astio is a punk band emerging from the dark and damp basement of the Dirty Carpet in Trento (Italy). Their sound blends the raw energy of 1980s Italian punk with the cold, glacial atmospheres of post-punk. Tight rhythms and sharp guitars, rage, and alienation. Their lyrics, dark and introspective, delve deep into themes such as obsession, the elusive concept of reality and truth, social anxiety, and the inevitability of war. Each song is a challenge to confront the fears and illusions that imprison us.
Tempio Ingano (Temple of deceit)
Tempio Inganno It's a sonic manifesto urging the destruction of the falsehoods surrounding us and the pursuit of a new way of living.
The construction of deceit as a safeguard. Reality has been created by nature, truth by human beings. The temple is a building created by humans to shape and justify a spiritual and sacred truth born to give meaning to life and to alleviate a vacant state of restlessness. Self-imposed deception as a search for salvation, as a division between good and evil that automatically places us on the side of the good, omitting that our state of well-being exists thanks to the suffering of millions of other people, from the past, present, and future. Knowing hurts too much, living in the temple of Deceit is easier and is the only thing that grants salvation and the life of the everyday.
Raise your gaze, be aware of what surrounds you, and burn down the Temple of Deceit.
