Testamento

by El Diablo de Shanghai

Testamento cover art

'Testamento' is the second album from the Barcelona-based quintet El Diablo de Shanghai. Produced by Sergio Maschetzko, known for his work with Black Country, New Road, the album sees the band move towards a more sincere and emotional sound while retaining their energetic indie and art rock roots. Thematically, the album explores disillusionment with youth, work, modern life, and relationships, blending a characteristic spoken-word vocal style with noisy, eclectic arrangements. This release represents a sonic maturation for the group, balancing their raucous energy with more refined and melancholic musical explorations.
