Man down: raw and transparent
- Liher has uploaded to Instagram the elegant version of Man down de Rihanna and they have written in the post "tomorrow we will tell you a very similar story to this one". The truth is that I have not followed the trajectory of the group too much, but the message has given me a lot of curiosity. Without investigating too much, I've left the surprise for the next day, to see what Lide Hernando and the company bring in.
The third work of the group is Hemen herensugeak dago, published at the end of February. When he began to immerse himself in a tour that was going to pass through several of the major European cities, Liher had to interrupt her journey and turn around COVID-19. After a few months, the concerts have gone from home to room in many cases and with it, at least, a step has been taken towards standardisation for artists. The other side of the screen is also not the most comfortable… The atmosphere, the company, the small earthquakes that cause the waves in the body and the highest type of the area, almost in front of you are missing.
“Red, dark red below the thigh…” begins the punctual concert. And besides going through the thigh, the leader of the Donostian band will present dark red costumes, dark red guitar for the left and dark red lips. The other three forming the black quartet. The story begins with a thigh soaked in red colors and then comes the stolen cars, the dreams of acid and the birds in the electric cables. Heavy, repetitive rhythms accentuate tension and darkness singing. Another treatment, a sorority and a hole have followed the victim, who has died on the spot. With the panties coming down and blood on the knife. “I think there’s no need to tell me what he did, although I know it doesn’t matter or say it,” Lide sings.
Who is the beast? The song has also played its part in the story, and nothing is out of place. With the version of Rihanna, the quartet has started the song of the end of the performance, the beginning of the last song of the album. And there comes a strong, clear message at the end of the story. “Who is the prisoner who stands or responds to evil? This is my recognition: when I finished here, I would do it again.”
The new album, which tells chronologically and by the mouth of a woman the story of a fictional violation, is the theme that we have been offered in this direct. Almost the entire disk. Lide tells us the story as crude as it is transparent. One of the most powerful voices in the Basque music scene. And in the end, there's one left, eager to enjoy what he sees and hears. With the feeling that it will increase between sweat and skin.
