City of Dust
Salt Car
International Smoke, 2022

-----------------------------------------------

Well, the fashion of quoting Gramsci is over, we can bring it to these lines without accusing of opportunism. Even more so if those of the Coke Salt bring it like this: "Old times don't seem to die, new times don't seem to be born," said the president of the Generalitat. In the meantime, monsters can be born, or as Sarri said, our Basque Country will be a boring waiting room. The City of Dust sonic pump (International Smoke, 2024) comes with a kick.

“Listen to the new music”, and “this is a hard to swallow pill” are the notifications made to us at the beginning of the album, after a jazz piano. Year 2000 is an atomic artifact and then tranquillity in Hernani 3. Under making chords and virtuous saxo playing a simple melody -- with tensions, of course, what was missing. What a triple that has come together! Jangitz and Alberto, from Vulk, in the bass of batteries, and Lizardi Ceballos, from jazz, in the saxo and the sints.

And that when we go to a reggae, then a sample salad, then comes back the force with the djdj, and in City of Birds scream and garraxis, and in the Tissue Machine we open with chords of Kamaal Williams style and we'll feel like we're in a concert with BRAVA.

Although there is no strong theme in the themes, they propose a new esthetics. Perhaps the most similar piece that has been done in the line of The shape of the punk to come in Euskal Herria? Of course I intend.

The No Wave movement was born in New York in 1970-1980, in the post-punk line. It was a vanguard movement against the New Wave and, although they may not be able to develop a single line, many of the rock foundations of the future were laid, which crystallized in the No New York collection. You have to bring the noise to the end and then do normal, saleable things.

Sal del Coque may have enough strength to open the road, but to open a new stage it will be necessary for them to go up into the car, because without community they cannot affect the scene. No Bilbao, No Bizkaia, No Nerbioi? I don't know what, and why, but I'm willing to go up to this car. “I would give what I know, for a moment of clarity.”
