INTRODUCING NEW EP "PORNO" FROM SPANISH BASED-ENGLISH SPEAKING BAND "MIREMONOS"


Ever since I started blogging I've received emails from all these random people wanting me to do a review for their music, most of it really sucks to the point I'd be called a massive hater so I don't even bother. So I get this email from this band today and I was like ok here goes another pop group, another Dr. Luke wannabe beats and such and such. I was very judgmental, they're not pop, or electro. They have a bit of rock, a bit of indie, a little bit of alternative and a bit of funk in them, and I like it so far. 

So what I know is that their front man is a Spaniard, raised in the US, and that most of their influences come from US and European bands, and it shows. They don't really have lyrics, for the most part it's just fragments but really, who's here for lyrical content? Their sound overall is very, very relaxed and you know, you just wanna grab a beer and a cig and have a chill moment. I think it might actually work in their advantage that they don't have many lyrics because sometimes you just wanna listen to nice instruments and some smooth "oooooooh" or maybe it's because I'm fucking tired as fuck right now and I really need some music to bring my "I just worked for 10 hours" adrenaline down.

The vocals are a little faded and chanty for the most part with really elongated notes at the end, so I can't really tell you that I understood most of it but in "Porno" he says "Don't get mad at me Mariaaaaaaa just because I wrote this soooonnnnggg" and I am slayeeeddddd! The guy's voice is really nice and smoothing. 

The music videos are mostly live footage with letters all over them (from the song titles and the band's name). It needs a bit less letters if I'm honest with y'all, cuz It's a bit distracting. Also, I don't understand why they're wearing that weird make-up, you're singing alternative music not screamo or heavy metal, unless you're just really into wearing hideous make up that makes you look very unattractive.

You know I love KPop because I can't understand it, and I really haven't understood much of their lyrics so I'm just hearing sounds and I love it. 

I also listened to "Horror Vacui" and I liked it. Definitely check them out!

I really wanted to do this review in Spanish, pero mi cerebro no puede pensar en espaƱol ahorita.
