"Autosabotaje", the 4th LP of the Albacete-based quartet, is the logical progression of their previous work "El Nuevo Frente Frio". And just like its predecessor, this album is the gentle and intimate take on dreampop/shoegaze's most intelligent version.
19. Bay City Killers "Delivery Of Goods" (p)The Braves Records 18. Marcos Y Molduras "Te Espero En Casa" (p)Discos de KirlianThe twee pop revivalist girl/boy duo sings odes to daily grind and troubled (or only allegedly troubled) relationships accompanied by drum machine and - surprisingly intense for this kind of music - guitars.
17. Maria Jaume "Fins A Maig No Revisc" (p)BankrobberThe blueprint of Pau Vallve's production is evident on this LP by 20 years old singer/songwriter from Mallorca. But what amazes me the most is the fact that the songwriting is incredibly competent for a persont in her adolescent years. The bright and beautiful, this album is such a debut most of young songsmiths could only dream of.
16. Dena "Ezer Sentitzeko" (p)self-releasedWith Berri Txarrak calling it a day and Lisabo rarely coming up for air, I do believe the torch of the best 'loud rock' band from Basque Country #rightnow should be passed to these folks.
15. Matsu "Nosotros" (p)WeAreWolvesI've been using the tagline "trippy, druggy, atmospheric" with negative connotations for years. This time I proudly use it heaving in mind something good. The best electronic album this side of Combray's "Ullapool"
14. Not A Number "A Life Made Of Wood" (p)El Hombre Bala 13. Salina "Lava" (p)Saltamarges/ Discos Delejos/ Beauty FoolLet's put it simple: the best post-hardcore album of the year.
12. Keep Out "Minimal Songs About The End Of The World" (p)FakieThis is how the huge fuck you to the world should sound like: dirty, noisy, chaotic, emotionaly charged, oozing with angst and anger lo-fi (I'd rather say, no-fi) manifesto.
This album was released in the end of the year 2019 so it didn't get a chance to enter the 2019's annual polls. But this well-balanced blend of jangle pop, post punk, Superchunk and present-day Catalan indie rock surely deserves it.
