The Best Of 2015. 11x11, The EP's and mini-albums

My official 'best of 2015' selection starts with the Top11 EP's and mini-albums. Yes, I know that ones of Bala and Axolotes Mexicanos are treated rather as longplays than as EP's - but their running time counts in 20 minutes, so I put them into this category.
Here we have fast and furious sludge metal from two Galician girls (Bala), the thoughtful alternative rock with touches of Pearl Jam and Muse (Paciente Cero), the best Canarian-bred electro rock from Estaretega Pencherjevsky, MINIATURa and K0manec1, the lo-fi covers mini-album by one of the best Spanish singers/songwriters (The New Raemon), the new project of ex-Muy Fellini frontman Juan Maravi (Exnovios), the quiet post-rock in its most intimate form (Paracaidas), the twee-pop-goes-punk trio Axolotes Mexicanos, the perfectly crafted post-hardcore by catalanes Pedro Parque, and the fragile sadcore/slowcore you're not going to shake off  from your head once you have a listen (Jon Koldo L. Salas).

Pedro Parque "Pedro Parque EP"

Pedro Parque "Pedro Parque EP" (p)2014 La Gramola Netlabel
I came across this short album by occasion a couple of months ago when I was searching through the releases of La Gramola Netlabel. I've downloaded it and returned to it only the last week. There are only four tracks - and that's the worst thing that can be said about "Pedro Parque" because it's undeniably great. Really, it's not worth trying to find the convenient words or any. It's totally. Fucking. Great. The best post-hardcore I've heard since The Jealous Sound's "A Gentle Reminder".
