A season that, cover band permitting, continues to host some of the most interesting bands on the island scene: and on Friday too, the Corto Maltese in Poetto will host a new event, which this time will be a double event with live performances by Plasticdrop and Arcana Bloom , from 10.30pm on the stage of the venue on the Cagliari seafront .

Plasticdrop , made up of Paolo Pani (vocals and guitar), Martina Manca (bass) and Alessandro Brundu (drums), are characterised by alternative rock sounds that move between various eras, with inspirations ranging from the post-grunge of the 1990s to the hard rock of two decades earlier , without forgetting touches of stoner and punk. In 2024 they signed to the labels Argonauta Records and Octopus Rising , releasing their debut " Life, Death and Miracles " (2025) for these labels, full of introspective themes and dark visions, immersed in energetic, essential yet melodic music.

Of more recent conception are Arcana Bloom , a group formed in the capital at the end of last year: bringing influences decidedly anchored to the "Nineties" and hybridized in a crossover of grunge, stoner and hardcore , the quartet also expresses introspective lyrics, but veering towards feelings of anger, discomfort and loneliness. Their debut single " The Wheeze of a Black Dog ", released last June 5th , also bears witness to this.
