@anselmoecheverria6342 Жыл бұрын

Squid es uno de los más sorprendentes grupos del nuevo post-punk británico, su excelente debut "Bright Green Field" (2021), había dejado las expectativas muy altas, así que el enigmático "O Monolith" venía lastrado por la curiosidad y el análisis pormenorizado, todo para garantizar que su éxito temprano no era sólo fruto de la casualidad. Lo cierto es que la banda de Brighton se han asentado como una de las más interesantes del momento, algo que ratifica su segundo álbum, donde muestran su perfil más expansivo, ese rock experimental que estremece al ofrecer oníricas bases electrónicas con delirantes arreglos de viento y febriles guitarras. No preguntes por qué, pero convencen a pesar de esa turbadora emergencia o precisamente por ello. Sus armonías disonantes y ritmos asincrónicos, les pueden convertir en tipos raros, pero la belleza se esconde en ocasiones en recodos imposibles. A pesar de todo "O Monolith" es un disco más accesible. Squid son desquiciantes y adorables gracias a ese sonido asfixiante y adictivo como un mantra. "O Monolith" es cualquier cosa menos convencional. Han parido un disco soberbio y lleno de personalidad. Música independiente novedades.

This will sound like an odd thing to praise but compared to some other post-punk acts like Black Country New Road or Black Midi what is most interesting is how much Squid sounds like a rock band underneath all the artistyness. Like the first two bands too but its nice to find a way to break the mold without becoming getting close to being Baroque pop or Jazz Rock.
