Leeps "idem"
Con una buena base melodica que mezcla el medio tiempo con la suavidad,esta banda nos entrega una produccion donde podras encontrar temas simplemente intensos con un punto fuerte en los arpegios de guitarra pero sin descuidar los demas aspectos de sus melodias como lo son la bateria y la voz,ademas de esto incluyen sonidos de vientos,esto hace que las melodias ganen en peso.Indie-rock e Indie-pop que se nutre del sonido de lo s90´s y el Alt-rock.Las letras son bastante introspectivas pero que reflejan muy bien la forma de ver el mundo que tienen estos chicos.Un conjunto de temas que estoy seguro vas a disfrutar de principio a fin y lo mejor de todo lo encuentras para descarga gratuita obvio que no hay que olvidar que al comprar su Cd ep podras ayudar a la banda a crear mas musica.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With a nice noise base that is kind of mid tempo with a soft wind,this band give us a release that have for sure some strong moments,the guitar work is a heavy part here but also the drumms and the voice,they also include some windwork that make the whole aura of the songs pretty strong.Indierock and Indiepop with some 90´s Alt-rock influence,the songs are about life and their problems in a very poetic and elegant way showing you that they think hard about what they are talking here.Songs that you will sure enjoy from the very beginning,you can downloat it for free and this is awesome but you can also buy the Cd ep and support the band to create and record new music.

Hace un buen tiempo que no descubria una banda de Hardcore que me atrapaba con su sonido asi de rapido.Estos chicos tienen no solo Hardcore en su sonido tambien mezclan ese sonido primigenio con algo de Metalcore y Punk,creando una pared sonora que es indestructible y solida.Liricamente sus mensaje es positivo y de unidad algo recurrente en este tipo de estilo.Al oir este lanzamiento no tienes la sensacion de que son temas individuales los que escuchas si no mas bien al oir esta produccion sientes que hay una continuidad entre las canciones haciendo que el oir el disco tengas un panorama completo de lo que la banda trata de expresar con su musica.Definitivamente una banda que se debe tener en cuenta.

Benjamin Busch "palimpsest"
Tuve la oportunidad de conocer al creador de esta libro ya que fue estaba sentado junto a mi en mi stand del la ultima edicion del festizine de Berlin.Este libro contiene una serie de imagenes en blanco y negro con una excelente resolucion.La tematica esta divida en dos grandes grupos,el primero de ellos la naturaleza,tema el cual presentado en blanco y negro le da una aura de tristeza y melancolia.El segundo grupo son las fotos de caracter urbano en realidad post urbano,estas imagenes reflejan locaciones antes habitadas y ahora en abandono,al ser tambien sin color,el impacto que tienen las mismas en muy intenso y personal.Este en un libro el cual cada vez que lo tengas manos encontraras en cada imagen un detalle distinto y eso es lo que hace que sea interesante de darle una mirada.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had the chance to get to know the autor of this book because he sat next to me on my expo table on the last festizine in Berlin.This books contains a serie of Black and white photos with a awesome resolution.The topics are divided in two big groups,the first one is nature which thanks the b/w touch looks depressive and intense,the second one is the urban side kind of post modern view of it with a lot of old and broken buildings with a personal and intimate feeling.This is the kind of book that everytime you see and find new details on the pictures.

Westkust "last forever"
Una banda la cual se nutre de una infinidad de influencias al momento de crear sus canciones.No podria personalmente definir una influencia marcante pero su sonido tiene muchio de Shoegaze e Indie-Pop con unas pinceladas de Alt-Rock.Los temas en esta produccion son oscuros y melancolicos dando una imagen de desolacion y un tanto de desesperanza.Estos chicos han creado una produccion la cual esta llena de perlas musicales,al oir la banda tienes el sentimiento que estas siendo transportado a una epoca anterior cuando las radio piratas en Am pasaban musica underground del otro lado del charco.Definitivamente una produccion que debes de tener en tu coleccion.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A band that have a lot of sonic influences at the moment to create songs.I ca not say that i hear a marcant influence but a lot of Shoegaze and Indie-Pop with a nice Alt-Rock flavor.The songs are somehow dark and melancholic packed with desolation and broken hopes.This guys created an album packed with music germs as you listen the recors you get the feeling that youre doing time traveling to the time where pirate radiostations on Am played underground music from the other part of the world.Definitely a record that you must own.

Nightmare Fortress "the waiting"
Esta produccion es impecable,tanto en sonido como en presentacion.La banda experimenta con sonidos oscuros,secos y de alguna manera hasta macabros,su estilo va por el lado del Darwave combinado con algo de Electronico y Synth.Musica la cual se torna personal e intismista,creando sonidos los cuales se convierten en una fuente de energia sonora sin darte cuenta.Usando instrumentos clasicos (guitarra,bateria) juntandolo con sonidos electronicos (synth,efectos,delays,etc) esta conjuncion hace que la banda nos presente un sonido puro e intenso.Una produccion que ya esta empezando a tener un poco de reconocimiento en la prensa asi que hay que esperar mucho mas de ellos aun.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a hight quality release in sound and presentation.The band experiment with dark and dust sound something with a macabre aura,their style is Darkwave with a bit of Electronic and Synth.Music that is personal and intimistic.Using normal instruments (guitar,bass,etc) as well as electronic ones (synth,delay,etc) this together work makes the music catchy but still elegant and dark.This release got some really good reviews and is not a surprise this band creates with this release a masterpiece.

The Capitalistuc Kids "at a loss"
Una produccion la cual esta impecablemente trabajada y te puedes dar cuenta de esto inmediatamente.Con un buen tiempo juntos como banda, estos chicos han creado un album el cual es compacto,rapido y melodioso, su onda va por el lado de Pop-punk y algo de Punk Melodico haciendo recordar un poco en su sonido a las bandas que surgieron a principios de los 90´s, por eso para mi particularmente es algo refrescante que aun en estos tiempo se pueda oir bandas creando musica en ese estilo.Sus temas tienen exactamente eso que hace el Pop Punk tan interesante,melodias rapidas,acordes de guitarras/bajo atrapantes,bateria al nivel perfecto de velocidad y una voz que es personal y desgarradoral.Se puede sentir de buena manera una progresion en el sonido y construccion de temas.Un album para disfrutarlo de principio a fin.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A release that is simply awesome and you can feel it from the very beginning of the record.With some time around as a band this guys created here an album that is fast,melodic and compact,their sound is all about Pop-Punk and Melodic Punk that remeind me a lot to the sound of those bands from the early 90´s, that is why i think that s very refreshing to listen at this time one band that still is paying with this kind of sound.Their songs have exactly this that make a good Pop-Punk record a good one,intensive melodies,faster and with great guitar/bass tabs a drummer that keep the beat and a voice that is personal and heratful.You can feel that they upgrade their sound on this record.A album that you will enjoy from the beginning to the end.

Alkantarilla # 2
Publicacion de corte Punk,que desde la portada da una idea de lo que podras leer en sus paginas.DE alguna manera me hizo recordar los zines de los 80´s no solo por por el hecho de la manera en la que esta diagramado,tambien por lo visceral de su mensaje y la forma de expresar sus puntos de vista.Combina la parte politic/critica social con la parte musica del buena manera.Es asi que encuentras articulos de corte politico/social con comentarios de musica.La parte grafica del zine es una mezcla de corta y pega con dibujos y textos hechos a mano,lo cual como dije le da una vibra muy vieja escuela.Un zine que tienes ganas de apoyar a su escena y desde mi punto de vista lohace de muy buena manera.Escrito en castellano.

Lo que tenemos aqui es una lanzamiento de una muy alta calidad, tanto en produccion como en composicion.El disco empieza con una intro bastante suave,casi hipnotica,para dar luego paso a temas los cuales tienen mucha influencia del Alt-rock y Indierock de los 90´s.La parte vocal esta trabajada de manera minuciosa,se siente exactamente al oir a la vocalista,lo que no esta tratando de transmitir.Musicalmente usa varios intrumentos en conjuncion,los cuales crean atmosferas sonoras completas que se ajustan perfectamente a el aura vocal.Este es una produccion con la cual sonoramente te puedes identificar de inmediato,con un sonido maduro y excelentemente llevado a cabo.La version online esta disponible para libre descarga,yo me hize de una copia fisica cuando tuve la oportunidad de ver en vivo a la artista.

Die Wrecked "mongel hordes"
Acabo de recibir esta produccion y tuve muchas ganas de escribir una reseña.Esta banda tiene un sonido caotico,fuerte y rapido,los temas que se encuentran en esta produccion te dejaran simplemente sin aliento.Su onda va por el lado del Punk Old School escuela inglesa.Al oir el Cd tuve el sentimiento de estar dando un viaje al pasado por el hecho de como los temas estan compuestos y tocados.Aunque veloces y agresivos los temas reflejan un agudo punto critico acerca de la realidad actual.Esta banda tiene ya un par de años de actividad y se ha caracterizado por lo directo de su mensaje y su sonido,en esta produccion nos presenta un puñado de temas los cuales no decepcionan en lo absoluto muy por el contrario hacen notar la evolucion de la banda.Una banda que tiene mucho que decir y lo expresa de la mejor manera.

Complot # 1
Cuando ves la portada de esta publicacion ya sabes de lo que se va a tratar en sus paginas,es la edicion debut de este zine AnarcoPunk de Lima-Peru. La vibra de esta publicacion es bastante vieja escuela es decir corta y pega con imagenes sobrepuestas y tenxtos a veces escritos a mano otras en maquina.Cada pagina esta cargada de informacion acerca de protestas callejeras y una que otra banda en concierto.Aqui leeras informacion acerca de actividades anarcas en Lima ademas de un par de entrevistas y columnas desde un punto de vista anarcopunk.No se si la persona que edita este zine ya haya editado alguno antes,pero este primer intento le quedo simplemtente excelente.Escrito en castellano.

When you see the cover artwork of this zine you are sure
what is all about, debut issue of this Anarchopunk zine from Lima-Peru. The
vibe of this zine is very really very old school that means cut and paste
images and text combinate with handwriting. Each page is packed with info and
images some about street riot and other about bands in concert. You are able to
read some info about anarcho activities in Lima plus and interview and couple
of personal columms that have a conection with everyday life in an anarchopunk
pint of view.Im not sure if the person that is making this zine, have done
another before but this first try looks simply killer.Writing in english.

Varial Zine # 187
Lo que empezo como un proyecto online en formato blog, se convirtio en una zine en papel,lo cual me da mucha alegria.
Esta edicion contiene entrevistas a sellos y bandas de Argentina (de donde es el zine) ademas de un par de reseñas las cuales estan muy detalladas.
La onda del zine me recordo mucho a los zines de los 90´s por la forma del layout y por la utilizacion del espacio disponible.En las hojas que por lastima esta edicion no son muchas,podras encontrar mucha informacion de proyectos underground que resultan interesatntes,por el hecho de que esta informacion esta escrita de manera coloquial.Una proyecto que de todas maneras debe ser editando en formato papel.Escrito en castellano.
