scene.
-In October of 2001 the band signs for My Kingdom Music
-In January of 2002, after changing their moniker in
"Room With A View" and some alternations in
their line-up, they enter the Temple of Noise studios

- Autumn-Winter 2002: "First Year Departure"
is out.
It is torment, grief and decadence set to music... vintage
soundscapes and isolationist atmospheres filtered by
the dandy aesthetic of a distant epoch. It is music
for the end of all your illusions…Emotions, suggestions
and melodies in rapid succession, evoking the cadence
of old crank little organ, in a timeless record, full
of black and white snapshots.
Polkas, little marches, soft requiems, once-posh nightclubs
and maharajas:
welcome to the "Room With A View" world, a
street theatre where puppets and clowns play tag and
where, between a waltz step and a dream, you can travel
from Trieste to Stalingrad to Salonika.
