«‘Kvng Fvzz’ will perhaps teach you how to succeed, via distorted riffs, in perfecting the art of the Combat par excellence, saving you from certain death on the streets of Shanghai, until you reach Nirvana.»
‘III’ is the third studio work of the Roman band FVZZ POVLI, recorded live at Big PineCreek Recording Studio in Parma in February 2020 under the supervision of Carlo Izzo (engineering, mixing, mastering), chief of Retro Vox Records.
The musical themes deviate considerably from previous works, favoring a more garage – acid rock – punk style, compared to the stoner-psych sound of the first two albums. Stooges, Dead Boys, Agent Orange, Hawkwind, Ty Segall, Motorhead, Misfits are some among the bands that have most influenced the sonic-compositional landscape of the LP.
The album title, ‘III’, was chosen as an element of detachment from the ferocious categorization of the modern musical landscape: «Either you listen to the record, or you’ll never know what we’re talking about.»
Retro Vox Records will release ‘III’ on LP and digital platforms on March 3rd. Find digital preorders at Bandcamp:

BIOGRAPHY
Founded in Rome by Pootchie and Datio in A.D. MMXVI, the idea was to form a powertrio with a direct and rough way to deliver heavy fuzzy riffs. Their sound melts Black Sabbath style heavy riffs with the roughest garage-punk bands attitude – like The Stooges -, adding the psychedelia from the 70’s to create their own style!
The band released and promoted an EP in May 2017, with a promotional tour in Italy, Switzerland and Germany. In June 2017 they became a part of Heavy Psych Sounds Records (Brant Bjork, Nick Olivieri, Fatso Jetson, Yawning Man, Nebula, Giöbia, Duel, Black Rainbows) roster to promote their first album ‘Fvzz Dei’. Out in September 2017, the album has brought the band on more than 70 european stages in 8 countries, giving them the chance to play in the mysterious Duna Jam. In June 2018 the band recorded their 2nd album ‘Magna Fvzz’, which has been released in October 2018 followed by a 75 gigs european tour, with highlights in festivals like Le Grand Incendie, Gouha, Berlin Swamp Fest and Tabernas Desert Rock Festival. In 2019 the band signed with the indie r’n’r label Retro Vox Records to release their 3rd studio album named ‘III’ in March 3rd, 2023.
Fvzz Popvli, among others, shared the stage with: White Hills, Black Rainbows, Naxatras, Giöbia, Karma To Burn, Rotor, Zodiac, DYSE, Powder for Pigeons, Hypnos and much more.
