The Dark Side of the Moonnezz is the sixth studio album by Italian parody singer-songwriter Tony Tammaro. It is the last after a long break for studio recording of eight years, during which the singer performed in tours.

This concept album explores the flaws and merits of the Neapolitan society starting from the problem of garbage disposal and having a journey through love, childhood, cellphone addiction, music piracy, money, government failures, generational conflicts and annihilation of the individuals in the mass. The Dark Side of the Moonezz has several direct allusions and tributes to Pink Floyd's discography from the main themes of The Dark Side of the Moon to Wish You Were Here .

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Tony Tammaro</span> Musical artist

Tony Tammaro, stage name of Vincenzo Sarnelli, is an Italian parody singer/songwriter. The main theme of Tammaro's lyrics are "tamarri", a term taken from Neapolitan dialect, which indicates someone who is vulgar, miseducated, and often boasting a flourishing behaviour. The term could also be translated as "rednecks", to indicate its derogatory nature; however, it presents no connections with the original term in regards of its rural background. In his songs, Tammaro uses irony to describe the "tamarri", from which his own stage name is derived.
