Sophie's Floorboard: Radura

Radura are a four-piece screamo/post-hardcore band from Milan, Italy that began in 2016. Since then, they've released two EP's, a split, and a full-length. I have been sorely missing out, because this band is absolutely incredible. Effetto Della Veduta D'Insieme makes for a gorgeous and cathartic listen, with the band crafting some of the most serene and ethereal music while still falling under the screamo umbrella. They take heavy influence from post-rock bands such as Explosions In The Sky, with the reverb and delay dialed up and the songs building into huge crescendos. They maintain a sense of energy with some pounding drums alongside vocals that are screamed, sung and spoken to convey a devastated longing, even without being able to understand a single word. Its nine tracks all offer something new, with its openers even incorporating a dreamy acoustic sound. Fans of bands including Daïtro, La Quiete, Raein, Envy, Suis La Lune, Pianos Become The Teeth, and Shizune would be remiss to not check this out. Enjoy.
