Un book, halfway between biography and art book, to tell the evolution of a group that has (already) made history. Måneskin – We are rock (Centauria 2021, pp. 40, € 14.90), of which we present below an excerpt and some illustrations, is the reconstruction of a story that began on the pavements of Rome, in squares chosen as theaters, the story of a dream that took the contours of reality. Guia Cortassamusic journalist, e Sara Rotlich, illustrator, wanted to retrace the steps that marked the career of Måneskin, relive the visceral impact of their performances, the music, the songs. Then, the small Roman performances, the opening of the Rolling Stones concert, at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas: the story of a triumph that is, at the same time, a universal parable of determination and talent.
From Måneskin – We are rock:
Born at the turn of the millennium – and belonging to a generation that is not afraid to claim the right to free expression of their sexual orientation and identity – Damiano, Ethan, Thomas and Victoria immediately showed themselves ready to subvert any gender stereotype with their own look and social commitment.
The Måneskin have chosen to become a symbol of the struggles for civil rights all over the world: present in street demonstrations against gender-based violence against women and allies of the lgbtqia + community, they did not spare themselves from taking their requests with them on the stages. important.
Thus, in response to the creation of “lgbt free” zones in the country, on the day of Pride, Damiano concluded the performance of I Wanna Be Your Slave at the Polsat SuperHit Festiwal 2021, broadcast live on Polish television, with a real I kiss Thomas, declaring into the microphone: «We believe that everyone should be able to do it without being afraid, that everyone should be free to be who the fuck they want. Thanks Poland, LOVE IS NEVER WRONG ».
And again, commenting on the Best Rock award at the MTV European Music Awards on the day of the sinking of the Zan bill against homolesbobitransphobia, the band had no qualms in declaring to “La Stampa” that “This year, in particular, we must go proud of our country for the results achieved not only by us, but by many sportsmen and cultural figures. Too bad for civil rights, where we continue to lag behind, and instead it would have been the most important victory ».
