The climate for the release of this record (among other things, one of the first "independent" outputs) is the years of lead and politicization of every aspect of life. Stormy Six represented the official voice of the student movement in Milan (or what remained of it), by far the groups' most important challenge of 1968. The concept of the work is related to the struggle for liberation from Nazi barbarism; all the songs have descriptions of facts (or considerations) linked to guerrilla warfare. And during this era, there was a "policy" or view the reaffirmation of an identity and a history without which no speech "left" is possible. Thus, there was no chance of "revivalism".[2]
