This album came out in May 2007 with an indie label called Terricolas Imbéciles. It was recorded at El Ensayo Recording Studio by Emmanuel del Real (member of Café Tacuba). Produced also by Emmanuel del Real and Austin TV. It was all composed by Austin TV in a small house in the middle of the woods in a place called Avandaro.〔http://www.elenanorabioso.com/2012/09/entrevistamos-a-austin-tv/〕 Like previous albums from Austin TV, all tracks are instrumental, only accompanied with spoken voices that are not related musically. This album could be catalogued under a concept album, including a more than 60 pages CD-sized book. This complement is a fictional diary of an old man called Mario Lupo González Fábila (Fontana Bella's alternate title is El Diario de Mario Lupo González Fábila), living alone in a forest called Fontana Bella (the album's main title). The diary shows a 5 months struggle with paranormal phenomena such as ghosts appearances, hallucinations and persecutory delusions (It may be depicted in real life as an alleged dementia or any incurable disease), including phlegmatic thoughts, anecdotes, attached letters and notes. The last days of the diary show distorted typography, scratches in some paragraphs, backwards chapters, cryptic letters and macabre imagery, resuming a progressive deterioration in Mario Lupo's world, or a complete insanity (even the last track called Voló Al Cielo (or Flew To The Sky) could confirm the death of the protagonist). The days appear at the top of the pages, starting from July 5th to November 2nd, probably making an allusion to the Day of the Dead (or Día de Muertos), a very important date in Mexico, which is celebrated that last day. The artist Marcos Castro created more than 30 paintings and drawings to illustrate this story. ---- == Personnel == *Chato - Electric Guitar *Chiosan - Synthesizers, Piano, Vibraphone, Glockenspiel, Harmonium and Clapping *Oiram - Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar *Rata - Bass *Xnayer- Drums, Bass Pad, Acoustic Guitar, and Clapping *Austin TV - Original Idea, Story and Redaction of 'Fontana Bella' *Carlos Villanueva - Style Reviser *Artwork and Design - Marcos Castro, Trevore Valensuela 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fontana Bella」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
