Album Notes & Community Reviews

Guided by New York producer Kurt Ralske, the Spanish indie rock group significantly dialed back the massive walls of shoegaze distortion that characterized their debut. The resulting sound is a sharper, remarkably catchy synthesis of punk energy and pristine indie-pop melody, directly reflecting the title's ambition. Despite initial commercial struggles, the refined songwriting deeply influenced the trajectory of the booming Spanish alternative scene.
