Founded by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMorgan Bellini\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, a DJ at the time, Vanessa was immediately acclaimed by critics since the release of the first self-titled demo. A cinematic mix of post-rock, sludge metal and shoegaze: quite a new sound within the Italian underground scene in that period. Several labels are interested in producing the band, that seemed to have developed its own style, more focused on the general atmosphere than on brute strength. When permanent drummer \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eRoberto Della Rocca\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e also joined the band, the trio released \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ePsygnosis\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e EP via Consouling Sounds and started playing live quite intensely until 2010, when Bellini moved to Austria and declared the band was again a studio project only. In the same year, Vanessa signed for American label Robotic Empire and released \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eCloser to the Small\/Dark\/Door\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, their second album. This full length contains shorter tracks and is influenced also by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eMorricone\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and by 4AD '80 albums. To everyone's surprise, in 2023 Bellini reunited the original Vanessa Van Basten lineup and began recording a new album, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eYes\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, to be released by Italian label Subsound Records. The band members consider this album a great return to their early style. Even if Vanessa Van Basten never pushed on promotion or social networks and with less than a hundred live shows in the mid '00, it has always been critically acclaimed, it is considered a cult band and it has unsuspected admirers, as \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eRandy Blithe\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eLamb of God\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (who said they're \"geniuses\").\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43852811337846,"sku":"760762799450","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1276\/9409\/files\/SSR168LTDLP_PROD.jpg?v=1784311937","url":"https:\/\/erodingwinds.com\/products\/vanessa-van-basten-yes-lp-color-vinyl","provider":"Eroding Winds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
