Spring Sound closed on Sunday with the final track of spring to Ciutat. Once again, several rooms and more artists you can see. So I decided on the paral·lel 62, where I played novel and talludito public (I included). But it was not the nostalgia that pushed me there, but the shocking present of one of the greatest representatives of the 90s: Kim Deal.
Because Kim lodged everything. Before, the Emoty Band Jazz cap’n He offered a fairly questionable but fun performance. It seemed that they played the songs to Cados, his singer Tim Kinsella was like the Greece and ended in tits. They even offered an accelerated and cacharrera version of the ‘Take On Me’ of A-H.
The Jesus Lizard They closed the night with a good and effective distorted rock performance that reached 90 minutes, although in the room there would only be half the capacity. David Yow looked like an old and fierce shaman willing to bewitch everyone present. He launched Crowd Surfing in the second 0, and did not hesitate to get off several times on track. The band refused to live alone from their past, since much of their repertoire was based on their latest album, ‘Rack’, 2024.
But the absolute queen was Kim Deal. Lucia plethoric, with an oceanic smile that illuminated the room. And, exciting detail, with a shirt with the name “Albini”, which simulated the shield of the Raiders. He was accompanied by a large band that included winds and strings. The repertoire was practically the same that played on one of the big stages on Saturday, but with the advantage that gives the close room. Thus, the first half of his performance was to break down ‘Nobody Loves You More’, starting with the headline. He could not be more lovely, as charming is ‘coast’. Alternative rock outbursts such as ‘Crystal Breath’ or ‘Disobedience’ sounded even more filled than on disc, and earned even more classic packaging. I only missed ‘Are You Mine?’, A particular favorite of mine.
But of course, madness arrives in the second part of the performance, dedicated to his songs with Breeders, starting with a brief and torrential ‘No Aloha’, and with a final infarction track: ‘Cannonball’ with winds to all rag and the audience crazy: I still had strength to throw it whole! Or the great version of ‘Happyiness is a Warm Gun’, with star paper for his chair; The beautiful ‘drivin’ on nine ‘with the violins incorporated. And of course, when in the end it grabs the bass and says that one of the pixies is going to play, the room is falling down to sing a “ gigantic ‘apotheosic, full of trumpets, strings and the madness of those we were there. The biggest.
