For a server, the Primavera Sound began on Wednesday 26 in a concert of the Ciutat Spring, a joint initiative of the organization, I guess the Barcelona City Council and the sponsors bandwagon, and that from this humble (and abandonadísimo forum) there is more to be welcomed warmly. In a phrase: free or affordable concerts outside the Fòrum, to bring the music of Spring to the public.
This Wednesday at the Apolo , celebrating the tenth anniversary of Wichita Recordings with a triple concert: Peggy Sue , First Aid Kit and Los Campesinos! Free admission for holders of the subscription. By the way, is used to redeem the card-entry pass and band for the venue. I said, "Well, I come before serving the first group and took positions to Los Campesinos!". Yeah, yeah ... The tail came up Paral.lel. The queue in which I got, because on the other side, facing the street Vila i Vilà, lay another equally long. Total hour and three quarters to access the Apollo. At least I saw Los Campesinos! First impression
already in queue: how foreign! Second impression: English gafapasta model is very different from the homeland. In girls: more strained, more flying lap, Ironing more hair, less glasses, less piercings. In general, closest to the school girls of Buddy Holly and Grease (the modosita, in this case). In boys: classic hairstyles, more casualware less piercings also more glamorous . Basically, more like Jarvis Cocker Buenafuente not to understand.
and less respect for personal space, too. What a pain in the ass, would not let me read the book , all the way over, as if this were to move the line faster ...
The concert (the only one I saw): The Campesinos! came with a disc (the "second", according to them, the third, for all that we thought we We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed was not a second album but a compilation of songs for fans "someone explain to me the difference-) with just two months old on the market. Less noisy than Hold On Now, Youngster ... more or less equally noisy and more mature (and hard, harsh, bitter) in points, confirming the evolution of her second album which was not foreshadowed his second album.
However, Los Campesinos! remain a safe bet for those who like strong direct: are young, talent, strength and stress, a lot of anger. Gareth Campesinos! is not, of course, a marvelous voice, but more than makes up its shortcomings pouring into the music. Moreover, the ruidismo can reach a saturation point, tarnishing the speech with some "sonic monotony." introspection Romance Is Boring and second-album songs-that-not-a-second-hard puzzles who will sweat and dance songs like "You, Me, Dancing!". Had continued the line of his debut, perhaps now would be talking about a band with a formula (bad) dead (worse) instead of showing a group have concerns, ambition to snap into folk-punk sound and energy rabid enough to stop a runaway AVE based on decibels.
Moreover, and as the show itself, it is clear the uneven reception by the public between the songs that dazzled in 2007 and those of We Are Beautiful ... and Romance Is Boring. Virtually any song has a chorus (not a "catchy chorus", no, a chorus. Think of them, lyrically speaking, more like a short story than a poem) and a higher density do not sound so accessible to the revelry. Gareth Campesinos! is also too introspective for a public welcome plus a greater complicity. The public likes to be lied to, being told that their city is the best, ask them clapping, choirs ... But playing the first beat of "You, Me, Dancing!" and break out the pogo on the track is all one.
The downside is, unfortunately, a
