Consorzio Suonatori Indipendenti

Consorzio Suonatori Indipendenti (C.S.I.; English: Consortium of Independent Players) is an Italian band that evolved from the former punk/art band CCCP Fedeli alla linea.

C.S.I. were founded in 1992 by Giovanni Lindo Ferretti and Massimo Zamboni, along with original members of the Italian band Litfiba. The naming conventions of the band followed political changes occurring around the time of the fall of the Berlin wall. Whereas the earlier band's name referenced the Cyrillic lettering for SSSR (i.e. USSR), "CSI" follows the conventions of the Italian acronym for the newly established Commonwealth of Independent States.

After Zamboni departed in 2000, the remaining members of C.S.I. continued in the form of Per Grazia Ricevuta. C.S.I. split in 2001.

gollark: Anyway, it's bizarre to go around complaining about me watching CIA-created stuff with no actual knowledge of what I watch, the difference between what you and me watch, and any explanation of what you actually mean by it.
