Ok. Gig was fine. EL ALPINISTA were as good as expected. As fresh as the record. You can smell 70's-80's flavour on their act. Even they made a pretty original cover of CECILIA's "Un Ramito de Violetas". I liked it too.
The gig was a presentation of two releases from LA INCUBADORA records. Both bands got stuff on it; UN MUNDO PEQUEÑO of EL ALPINISTA and MÚSICA DEL DESCONTENTO of ZOO. And second band, ZOO, started after some fresh pop attack.
Well: the fact is that the bands that night were not similar...
ZOO were twisted. Forget about their past as 995. Their sound can be explained as some commercial CHOKEBORE, stained a bit with spanish defunct band SOBER drops and some spices in a few passages like THERAPY?... maybe. Their sound live is different as live. On the record, sound is neat, clean... produced in the end. Live, they sound rawer and because of that, they fit ok in the night. I only can notice a problem on ZOO: the attitude of lead singer can kill this band. This is just a personal opinion... ;)
Definately, the night was funny, cool and enjoyable. Both albums are recommended.
Happy new year!!!

El Alpinista - Mundo Pequeño
Here's a fresh band from Spain that self-produced their pretty good debut album "Mundo Pequeño".
Though their soft lyrics and bubble sounds may think they're softer than soft, you just have to leave your imagination and get swallowed by the tunes... you'll feel pure energy thru your veins.
Tomorrow, EL ALPINISTA will play live for free at Moby Dick club and NoizeLand will be there beering and checking.
Get more info at their site and also at this label, La Incubadora.
Stay tuned...
GoodBye, Mr. Brown
Goodbye, James Brown.
Goodbye black energy.
You leave your songs and what you've done. Maybe bad things will be covered for most.
NOIZELAND will remember you in an important place into history of music.
Rest in peace, master.

WIZARDS FEST III was AWESOME!!!
A cool night was about to come… I was really excited because I hadn’t listened new stuff of my friends VIAJE A 800 and that night I’ll do. And that was not all… three more bands would play with them. They were:
ARENNA, GLOW, VIAJE A 800 and RIP KC. Cool enough…
First band was ARENNA. Some say they were boring but I don’t think so. They played just like UNIDA. But with more originality into their tunes. The problem for them is they’re pretty static on stage. Now is a trend to puke when you listen pure stoner… but who cares. Take it or leave it. And if you take it, enjoy it. Simple, that’s all. Copy?
Second band was GLOW. I’m not their first fan… and they don’t need it. They’re a cool band with a legion of followers (bigger after their new album "Dive into the sun" on ALONE RECORDS) but their sin is: too much posse. Five guys rockin’ in a typical rock formation (frontman, two guitars, bass and drums) gotta do something else than rockin’ if they wanna be aces. But as I said, their new stuff is pretty cool, recommended for all rockers who want to listen cool rock. Maybe they didn’t catch my attention because I was anxious to see VIAJE A 800 live again after a year and a half or so.
VIAJE A 800: AWESOME. I know them since the beginning… since when they played as a hobby… since the band was not serious at all (is it so now?!?!? J)… since they didn’t realise they were pseudo-masters… since when their stuff were only songs for them. But EVERY tune (except country riff with clapping into their DIABLO ROTO DE album, hehehehe) they’ve made until now is a solid song that will never leave your soul, if your soul is pure.
I was shocked when I realised at the end of their gig that they only played three old songs because I normally enjoy bands live if I know most of their set. But this time new material of this trippy wizards deserved the pain to be unloaded over the fascinated mass below their feet and discovered like an unexpected treasure. That’s exactly what their new material will mean.
I can only say they sounded loud, angry, doomy, heavy and thick. And twisted changes into most not-short songs couldn’t even bore anyone there.
Congratulations, dudes: you made it again.
After them, RIP KC closed the night. Three piece band that sounded as good as their experience could picture into someone who doesn’t know them. And only three guys creating a so-eclectic sound that enveloped you back to a previous rock age… I liked them. Their album "Obvious and Bleeding" is very good but watching them live (as almost always with any band) is better.
Looking forward to check new VIAJE A 800 release around February ’07 and, maybe, a re-release of that master piece DIABLO ROTO DE.
Satisfied…
