My Review: Holograma - Holograma

 Holograma - Holograma

Nothing is more valid than reading, to get in and out of one's own selfish eccentricity. Sometimes it happens that the same effect can arise from listening to an EP, like an exaltation that gets us drunk, discovering that we need to keep in touch amidst a thousand references and the feeling that this band has a mystery on its hands that makes it give it its own merits, that it has plots that are entirely its own.

With Nostalgia we go to Germany, between initial Dark Electro impulses, then it becomes a Synthwave diamond that sweeps us away, inexorably, and it is love at first listen, immediate, generous.

Comunicación is the whole epic of The Sound period, The Chameleons, The Cure and the electronic Ultravox all trying to fit together, and the result is a seismic dance, sublime.

The EP ends with Siento Libertad and it is the trump card: the best track put as the last reveals great tactical intelligence. A few synth notes, a drum machine that shakes, a guitar that arrives slowly but then paralyses, like a romantic gesture with the possibility of killing. And the voice, distant, like a fat, muffled hiss, to complete the enchantment...
