It is a concept album, complete with songs that are fictionalized stories about misfits, fashionistas, outcasts and junkies in mid-1980s Milan. Daniele teamed up with Parquet Courts and Yeah Yeah Yeahs vocalist Karen O to help deliver his vision of an emerging youth culture struggling to be heard amidst the rapid gentrification of old Milan. The song "Soul and Cigarette" is a tribute to Milanese poet Alda Merini.[9]


Critical reception


Reviewing in his Substack-published "Consumer Guide" column, Robert Christgau regarded the album as a minor work dominated by Andrew Savage's "clever" lyrics and vocal performance.[4]
