Track By Tracks: Plasticdrop - Life, Death And Miracles (2025)

1. Life:

We kicked off the album with Life, which was also our first single. Choosing the opener wasn’t easy—should we break the ice with something heavy or go for a more catchy vibe? In the end, we went for a middle ground. The track starts with some radio-friendly harmonies but shifts the mood after the second verse. It’s our anthem to life, the song that makes us jump every time we’re on stage.

2. Nothing to Share:

One of the first tracks we wrote after Phenicopters, and you can tell—it’s the closest in sound to our first album. In this song, Paolo wanted to express the frustration we feel when clashing with the musical and cultural reality of the place we live in.

3. Death:

This is the rawest, loudest, and angriest track on the album. It echoes the desperate screams of depression, those cries for help we’ve often ignored, thinking they weren’t important.

4. Simply Beautiful:

The album’s ballad. This is where our singer’s most romantic side comes out as he opens up about his relationship with his partner. The song evolves toward the end, closing with a solo that gives us chills every time we play it.

5. Don’t Leave Me Now:

The most carefree and danceable track on the album! Probably the one that gets the most heads nodding at our shows. It’s an easy, fun song with no big ambitions—just pure rock’n’roll energy, lighter and less dark than the rest.

6. 2016:

A hidden gem on the album. It starts one way and ends completely differently. If you have the patience to listen all the way through, you’ll get to an instrumental outro with a sound shift that even people who call us “not metal enough” tend to appreciate. The subtle dissonance between the bass and second guitar makes you want to hit replay again and again.

7. It Turns to Bad:

This album is dedicated to Carletto, one of our closest friends who took his own life a few years ago. It was a devastating loss, and we still feel the pain of his absence every day. This song is our way of processing the guilt of not realizing how serious things were until it was too late.

8. Never Again:

Along with Death, this is one of the album’s most straightforward and intense tracks. A loud, heavy, heartfelt song about the mistakes we try not to repeat—even though deep down, we know they might happen again.

9. Miracles:

We close the album with hope. Miracles had a unique journey—it remained an instrumental track for months because we were afraid to ruin it with a predictable vocal line. We even considered having someone else sing it. In the end, Martina and Alessandro took charge, and we fell in love with the result. The final chorus is pure catharsis, the perfect way to wrap up the album and leave the listener with a lasting impression
