Biscuit "Negligencia Programada"

 Biscuit "Negligencia Programada" (p)2020 La Castanya

For the first half of “Negligencia Programada” the coastal art-punks from Vilanova I la Geltru switch from the redd kross'y power-pop of the previous self-titled record (the only one of Biscuit’s back catalogue I have been initially familiar with – so I’m kinda destined to compare “Negligencia Programada” to “Biscuit” all the way) to the spaced-out psychedelic rock. Then for a couple of songs they switch back to the “Biscuit” sound only to sandbag a confused listener with flamenco-ed hard rock when the aforementioned couple of songs is over. These stylistic escapades result in the playing time clocking over an hour. It all may sound quite unsettling and cause awareness of getting buried beneath the album’s collapsed structure but, frankly speaking, in case of this particular album it works great as “Negligencia Programada” has got a lot to offer while having no weak points at all.
