After the good reception of their first two advance singles, Loma_Baja publish today Friday “Piscinas Verticales,” a monumental presentation letter that tonight they will be defending live at the Sound Isidro Festival in Madrid.
Nobody expected a new band like Loma_Baja to make so much noise in the underground with their first singles “Boda Final/Velorio” (official videoclip) and “La Emboscada,” but they did it and we at Spinda Records love it because we fell in love with their experimentation as soon as we heard the master for the first time at the end of 2022.
With members of G.A.S. Drummers, Adrift, El Páramo, Gentemayor, Soud Edipo, Giganto and Another Kind Of Death, these guys do something we could define as post-everything in a studio work whose concept revolves around the spontaneous and the surreal, as if it were the soundtrack of your worst nightmare. Their sound goes far beyond labels and genres, although similarities with bands such as Beak, Oranssi Pazuzu, Portishead, Fugazi, True Widow or Liars can be sensed.
