"Every track is a winner, proving that incredible art can be accomplished in the arena of popular songcraft."
Jon Davis

"Be Blind is the title of an album in which an inspired Debora Petrina intends to bring her experience, much personal till the first notes of the opener November 10th."

Ruggero Chiaramonte

"Petrina is able to mix successfully rock, electronics and orchestrations to give an always iridescent dress to her compositions. BE BLIND is a predominantly moving album."

Roberto Calabrò

"Ten tracks gifted by a solid sound. We cross different musical genres without loosing a well marked identity."

Federico Laratta

"Ten surprising and refined songs, with harmonic and rhythmic solutions always original, well-finished and refined arrangements which don't prevent the sound from being impetuous, mighty and powerful."

Antonio Tony Face Bacciocchi

"Debora Petrina is able to range from sperimentation to jazz or, as in this her new work, she is able to flirt with the closest to rock impulses, even if a non-conventional one."

Roberto Peciola

"These songs which start from whispers and arrive to a (liric) rallying cry, and design a concept which take advantage of synaesthesia and principle of non-contradiction, are a milestone of songwriting of these years."

Michele Saran

"BE BLIND is a solid, univoque corpus, made coherent by the gentle and light, but also sharp and vibrant voice of Petrina, and confirms her as one of the most talented, curious and interesting voices in the Italian feminine panorama."

Gianluca Lambiase

"Listen to what blooms under her words, her irony and her melancholy, her immense will to live and her love of telling the details."

Paolo Gresta

"After a myriad of chameleon projects, blazoned collaborations and three distinguished albums on her shoulders, the artist from Padua comes back with a new entirely sung in English project, which breaks into small pieces some 'parlor-style' pop-rock to make bluish confettis she throws to unforseeable gusts of wind."

Antonio Belmonte

ALBUM OF THE MONTH

"Be Blind isn't a mere collection of songs but a viewpoint on today and yesterday music, whose strength stays in the fusion of different elements. Debora Petrina is messanger of a Immediate, dense, and at the same time simple communication."

Roberto Valentino

"A collection distinguished by a newyorker’s coolness (between Laurie Anderson and Talking Heads) which confirms her among the most talented Italian off-musicians."

Elio Bussolino

"DEBORA PETRINA, searching for love with her eyes shut.

Composed by 10 songs which represent the perfect synthesis of her artistic and musical career, it is a compact album with rock resonances which cross into jazz and electronics, with autobiographical lyrics and songs which pay specific attention to the inability to talk to the heart of things, in a society like ours, both in the daily relationships, and in the field of information."

Pasquale Rinaldis

"The influences are so many (Kate Bush, Laurie Anderson and, in the darkest moments, Siouxie Sioux) and combined with personality – thanks also to an intrepid voice which is second to none."

Francesco Donadio

"What we like of Petrina is her continuous desire to bring to a higher level the music she manages."

"Debora Petrina's style is able to create that psychedelic effect, with scratches of pure sensuality, which are the features of her work as a soloist. To be sipped in a relaxed atmosphere with a high volume!"

Vainer Broccoli

"A unique case in the Italian panorama."

Intervista di Giancarlo Bastianelli

"We are struck by Petrina's leading and narrating voice, as well as the perception of an enchanting and at the same time slightly sinister sound merged together, which lead us toward the end of the album. A rich and precious velvet which doesn't reassure us for its softness, but confers a sense of authority to the one who wears it, and a sense of elegance to the one who looks at it."

Giovanni Carfi

"A rock songwriting which might evoke Fiona Apple. Every time we get in touch with this artist we remain stunned by the ease she has facing different styles with a high and constant quality level."

Bizarre

"Paper Debris is the song which Tori Amos has desperately been trying to write over the last few years. Looking beyond, listening with wide open ears."

Elena Raugei

"Beyond the beauty of a voice which is able to be austere and confidential at the same time, we are struck by her imagination and the expressive strength of songs sounding modern even if they boast a classical 80s/90s nature which makes them more familiar. Rather than a normal songs collection we have the impression to face an (ambitious) rock opera."

Federico Guglielmi

"Petrina doesn't disappoint the expectations thanks to the power of her voice and to a sound structure which looks more and more to refinement and uniqueness."

Maria Concetta Botrugno
