Review

Alright, let's talk about Måneskin's debut EP 'Chosen'. This little slice of rock 'n' roll history dropped on December 8, 2017, fresh off the heels of their runner-up finish on Italy's 'X Factor'. Now, I've seen my fair share of talent show contestants fade into obscurity, but these kids? They were just getting started.

The EP's got a mix of originals and covers that'll make you sit up and take notice. Their own tracks, 'Chosen' and 'Recovery', are both in English and pack a punch that'd make even the most jaded rocker nod in approval. 'Chosen' is a high-octane ride with Damiano David's vocals front and center, while 'Recovery' shows they can slow it down and still keep you hooked.

But let's not forget the covers. These kids took on The Four Seasons, Black Eyed Peas, The Killers, and even Ed Sheeran, turning each track into a rock anthem that's unmistakably Måneskin. Their version of 'Beggin'' especially caught fire, burning up charts in Italy and beyond. The EP hit number 3 on the Italian Albums Chart and went platinum, proving these Romans had the chops to conquer more than just their hometown. It's the kind of debut that makes you think, "Yeah, these guys are going places." - Jude
