The band born in Cornuda moved on to the “auditions” of the popular musical talent, snatching the “yes” of Manuel Agnelli, Emma and Hell Raton, but not that of the very strict Mika
CORNUDA. I Bengala Fire tread the stage of X Factor, collect three “yes” from the judges and make Manuel and Mika argue. One of the most loved and acclaimed bands of the moment during the Sky talent show, which is airing in recent weeks, are Bengala Fire, a group from the province of Treviso, formed in Cornuda, who explained that they have been playing together for 11 years. , when the members were little more than middle school kids.
“We were 12, we were called Gold.One, just like condoms, and our flagship song was Blitzkrieg Bop (” Hey Oh Let’s Go “)”, they wrote in a post last year, on the occasion of the tenth anniversary, «In the next few days we will publish some photos of the most important moments in our history of rock’n’roll and brotherly love “.
The band that performed on Thursday evening, during the third episode of the show’s auditions, brought an unpublished piece entitled “Valencia”, a song full of verve, very much liked by Manuel Agnelli, Emma and Hell Raton, while Mika, more severe , he was not entirely convinced, enough to pull out the “no”. Manuel praised the style of the boys which refers to the Arctic Monkeys. “You are very Brit Rock, I like you very much, you feel it.”
Mika remarked that he did not find them completely “credible”, bordering on the “cover band”. Also for him the frontman of the band has a too strong Manchester accent. “I like you very much, you did what you would have done in the worst bar in the province of Treviso and you simply brought it here without forcing it and without doing what you have to like at all costs,” said Emma Marrone.
What matters to the band – who said they started from the bars and festivals a bit “rotten” (pulling a smile from the four), listening to the great rock bands like Dream Theater – is only to have passed through the caudine forks unscathed. of the table of judges and return to amaze the public.
The four boys have hundreds of concerts behind them, they have played throughout the province of Treviso, but also in many other cities. The very first concert of the four was immortalized at the “Flying Butter” in Cornuda, in August 2010. The alternative-rock band from Treviso promises sparks: they are already going crazy on the group’s social pages.
