We have just encaled the distribution of our specimens corresponding to the month of May. Number that has the Madrid Sexy Zebras on the cover.
The sexy trio zebras is clear that “BRAVO” (Warner, 25) He arrives at his best as a band. An album in which they try to be anything other than themselves. Madness, choruses and very little shame. As it should be.
The Irish The Murder Capital They have a new album under the resounding title of “Blindness” (Human Seasons, 25), And what better way to approach him than talking via telematics with the band’s frontman, James McGovern.
What does a group do when you have already exploited what you know? When has you exhausted everything you like, have seven albums with your name and don’t know what direction you take? Well, he decides to look inside for the first time, speak from rawness and create his (first) most human album. Thus he was born “All good things” (Orange lake, 25) Rufus T. Firefly.
Mike Hadreas, Perfume geniushe is one of the most original and emotionally powerful artists of his generation. You can make a piano ballad capable of breaking your heart with your eyes closed, but, as you have demonstrated throughout your career, you like to take risks and make each album, each song, go through the places you least expect. AND “Glory” (Matador/Popstock!, 25) It is another example.
Tobias Forge and its Ghost They have a new album, “Skeletá” (Concord/Music as, 25), a work that sounds large and epic, with the Swedes displaying their full potential of melodic hard rock and intertwining it with its dark ceremony.
That another young band arises within the circuit of formations that rely on guitars and old sounds is always excellent news. Miraculous are presented in that big scene: with an album like “It doesn’t hurt me badly” (Self -edited, 25) that includes a good handful of targets.
There has been no missing music from Madrid in recent years: “When you bite your lip” (21), the parallel project with The handsome … but nothing is comparable to “Giant” (Sony, 25), disc in which Leiva It is explained as it is, and how never to date: anxious, enthusiastic and idealistic. Mature complex and with gallons. Big.
In just over a five years, we have seen La Plata Fast rock, betting on the most raw post-power and reinventing itself with a synthesizer blow, showing us that, above all, their respective members are living organisms, eager for transformation and constant disagreement. AND “Interzona” (Sound boy, 25) is another example.
And here everything related to our most extensive interviews, but you can also find other content, such as the talk we had with Miqui Puig on the occasion of the edition of his book “I didn’t want to be Miqui Puig”as well as others with Tonino Carotone & Giulio Wilson, the Nest, the Maria and a special about “Super H”the album tribute to the first length of the Granada group Los Planetas.
