Info

Palimpsesto

Recorded live and analogically over three and a half days, ‘Palimpsesto’ responds to a wish to rewrite; it is a self-contained look at shared feelings that have been shaped into an artefact.


Their third release is a departure from the intimist poetry that characterized the two previous pop releases. This change of course veers towards sharp, dissonant new forms. Their present work contains a political response (or else, anti-political response) that is both contemporary and abstract. Frank Rudow’s production and Paco Loco’s deft touch bring in the roughness and spontaneity that permeates through the album.


Undoubtedly a transitional album, this release is a robust piece of work that is built around volume and is close to previous melodic efforts. The risk taken responds to a wish to achieve self-improvement and reach in different directions until coming upon a definitive restatement.

REVIEWS

De espaldas a los cánones del rock. No parece tan difícil, pero lo es, y eso redobla la valía de este grupo Barcelonés. Líneas inusuales de voz, instrumentación expresiva y muchas escuchas por delante

Pablo Gil, Noviembre 2009 | EL MUNDO METRÓPOLIS

Discurso denso, con crispados juegos instrumentales, donde prima el riesgo sobre la melodía y la lluvia (ácida) contra el contexto en el que (de) crecemos

Beatríz G. Aranda, Noviembre 2009 | EL PAÍS EP3

Enormes ideas. Dispersión sonora que hace luminosas unas canciones que rezuman ironía, aromas naïf y una inocencia ciertamente muy distorsionada y gratificante

Esteban Linés, Noviembre 2009 | LA VANGUARDIA

El rastro en llamas. ‘Palimpsesto’ es un formidable trampolín a la abstracción, el segundo nacimiento desde el fuego de una banda que, sin dejar de ser quien era, ahora es otra
