Wretched - Lotta Per Vivere


Wretched were a hardcore punk band from Milan, Italy circa 1980.
The original line-up was Gigi on guitar, Fabio on bass, Giancarlo on drums and Gianmario singing. This version of Wretched debuted on their 1982 split EP with Indigesti. Although they originally sang in English, they soon switched to their native Italian, finding it better suited to expressing their radical political message. The band took strong anti-war and pro-anarchist stands through their lyrics and imagery. They also self-released all of their records on a label that came to be known as Chaos Productions. The band lived at the infamous Milano squat Virus, which played host to many hardcore shows in the early-mid '80's. Wretched lived and breathed the DIY spirit of rebellion that they advocated in their music.


The band recorded their first EP before switching guitar players and drummers in 1984. Daniele (guitar) and Crema (drums) played on the next record, Finira Mai?, and on the full length album. Appearances on BCT tapes comps and the seminal international compilation P.E.A.C.E. spread the word of "Chaos non musica" to everywhere punk was being played. Zambo took over drums in 1985, and the band began its shift into heavy metal. Internal problems (including Mario's shredded vocal cords) and line-up changes forced them to call it quits in 1988.

Gianmario Mussi - vocals
Daniele De Sanctis - guitar
Fabietto - bass
Crema - drums.
