Lighthouse Pathetic
Lighthouse Pathetic is the seventh album of the Italian heavy metal band Mastercastle, released on 10 January 2022 by the record label Diamonds Prod.[2] There are also two instrumental tracks. HistoryThe songs were composed between 2019 and 2020. The instrumental track "Rosso Profondo"[3] is a reworking of the song "Profondo Rosso" by the Italian progressive rock band Goblin. The track "Fantastic Planet",[4] on the other hand, is a reworking of the soundtrack of the 1973 animated film Fantastic Planet (La Planète Sauvage). All the lyrics are written by Giorgia Gueglio and consist of "a fascinating journey into our emotions, symbolized by the lighthouse that illuminates our path even when it seems dark and full of pitfalls".[6] Pier Gonella summarizes, "musically, on the one hand, the album sees a return to our roots, with a more gritty and faster sound and a great deal of work on vocal melodies alternating with highly sought-after instrumental tracks". The composition started in a very relaxed way about three years ago, maybe even a little earlier. For some time, I've been producing various types of musical bases and accompaniments that I then publish in digital format. In a series of Heavy Metal bases, I found two or three tracks that started everything.[7] I thought that with Giorgia Gueglio's voice, these were "Mastercastle" songs.[8] Two singles were released from the album: "Who Cares for the Moon",[9] released on 28 June 2022, and the eponymous "Lighthouse Pathetic",[10] released together with the rest of the album.
