Disclaimer: Ray Ottoboni makes music in much the same way kittens play with spiders, because they have to. Ray's music was not constructed to fulfill some market ready demographic or satisfy a personal financial goal of his, nor is it to be easily understood by everyone. It is also not purposefully cryptic nor intentionally clouded with sarcastic or ironic half truths in the hope it may be considered edgy or influential by the posturing social segregationists. Ray has looked into the "abyss", into the cold eyes of the darkest of his dark demons and tore from their flesh a raw narrative so tender even to ponder its own existence would pale its surface a color most unkept. A narrative that invites you to sit at a long wooden table strewn with the very ingredients it will use to season your dead rock critic body to be served up unceremoniously to neither rich nor poor, but slowly and with a simple inviting deliberateness, to all. Ray Ottoboni has set the table. Won't you stay for dinner?
