The Fiery Furnaces are proud to announce the beginning of their six-part adaptation of that classic work of the European Imagination, Giambattista Basile’s Lo cunto de li cunti. Believing that rock music is ideal for the dramatization of this work when the title is left un-translated (which of course it should be), the Fiery Furnaces (or related enterprises) will be recording the first slant in and around Naples sometime in the next 11 months. Interested parties with access to recording facilities in the south of Italy or water jugs full of tears should please write to the band’s P.O. Box.
