This album has taken me completely: the blows of the first songs and be as open as concept. Let's go to the roots of the trunk. Hondarribitarra Xabi Strubell is the father of the Zura group, founder and guitarist of the Dut group, formed at the heart of his youth. Later, the verb changed in time and when the trio of Hondarribia was dissolved, each began by its side. Strubell founded the Zura group and from the beginning he explored other styles. After publishing a paper with Metak, in 2008 he surprised – for the better – Basque music with his five-piece album from Kiribil. Later, no more albums were released, although they participated in the Txinaurriak collection that Bidehuts launched in tribute to Mikel Laboa. Last year, inspired by the novel Leturiaren egunkua ezkutua de Txillardegi (as a tribute, of course), they published this album in which they collaborate with the voices Jurgi Ekiza of Willis Drummond instead of the singer Nerea Olaxa of the Bossa nova season.
It is said that what it had will continue to be, and that is certainly the case if we look at the songs on this album. The strength and strength of the post-hardcore are very present in several pieces and it is perceived that they are in natural salsa, very comfortable and with very good result. The land of Zeru, which opens the album with a punch, leaves us glued to the chair; it is a very lively rock that drinks a lot from Euria Fugazi and Bap! Itxaso is completely melodic, but with fully twisted guitars and drums up to the level of the trumons, developing and transforming. After thunder comes the change: The most applausible hypothesis is the electro and dancing song. The ashes are soaked in psychedelia, rested but mysterious.
And death to me, which lurks in the middle of the record! is one: The freedom of The Ex, the richness of Fugazi, the strength of Helmet and the urgency of Gutariko Bat go at great speed on a train we would never want it to stop; beautiful! Silent weeping has the essence of the rock of the 1970s; Lilura has the new wave bizati of the 90s and transforms to the sticky rock to invade the road; the plant is pickled, almost whispered, but the rhythm is very rich and free until the explosion arrives. Finally, Paris in a slow but interesting tone.
Ekiza has given a different, more penetrating touch to the songs she sings. On the other hand, they have demonstrated their status as experienced musicians: attained environments, rhythms, open development of songs... I'm looking forward to seeing the team live. Welcome to the Wood!

Many times, after looking at the brumas from my house, it has occurred to me not to catch umbrellas, even though I know I will just soak up. Why will it be? Maybe you don't want to catch the umbrella? Maybe in the hope that I don't get wet? Nevertheless, the conclusion has always... [+]
I remember when I was 16 years old, the Ertzaintza first identified me in a concentration in favor of the Basque Country before the Bergara courts. We believed that in Euskal Herria it was legitimate to cry for the Euskaldunization of the courts, but then there would also be a... [+]
The disaster caused by the cold drop in Valencia has left us dramatic images, both because of the immediate consequences it has had, and because the future awaiting us has brought us forward: that this type of extreme climate phenomena will be increasingly numerous and serious... [+]
The update of the Navarra Energy Plan goes unnoticed. The Government of Navarre made this public and, at the end of the period for the submission of claims, no government official has explained to us what their proposals are to the citizens.

Since the disappearance of the Soviet Union, rusophobia has been growing. The concept of security of the UN Security Council of 2002 is very clear and indicates that the security and stability of the planet must depend on the states that do not intend to challenge the United... [+]
Andoni Urrestarazu Landazabal was born in the village of Araia on 16 July 1902 and died in Vitoria on 21 November 1993. It is now 31 years old and I think it is time to recognize his name and be, because the legacy he left is not well known. Umandi used the name of a mountain in... [+]
Autobiography writing is, they say, the most effective tool for personal development, the most liberating. Pulling things away from the past and remembering them, it seems that it helps unleash the knots of the present. Yes, it helps to understand the present and to draw a... [+]
I have done a review from the announcement of the pandemic to the tragedy in Valencia and have concluded that the disastrous institutional management that lies and forupe as firewalls is constant of the ruling class.
We do not have a valid substitute ruler as long as this... [+]
November 19 is World Bathing Day. Even today, in the twenty-first century, many workers here in the Basque Country do not have the right to use the toilet in their working days. Many transport workers are an example of this.
Toilets are the key to public health and play a... [+]
We know that artificial intelligence is representing many fields in human beings: comfort, speed, efficiency ... We've been led to believe that human endeavor is an obstacle to the speed needs of this capitalist world. The aggressions to reduce our chances of doing, doing and... [+]
In recent weeks it has not been possible for those of us who work in architecture that the climate phenomenon of Valencia has not been translated into our work discourse. Because we need to think about and design the path of water in decks, sewers, plazas and building parks. We... [+]
Self-esteem sometimes seems intimate. But if self-esteem is about the image that you have of yourself, about the value that you give yourself, you'll also have to see the decisions that you can make. What value does someone who can't decide have? So we start to look at our mother... [+]
The Sanmartines are well known in our homes, as it is time to kill the pig. However, many people will not know that before St. Martin's day marked the end of the agricultural year. And that was no nonsense. In fact, at the end of the year, I had to pay an annual rent to my... [+]
For a whole week we have talked about the book The Adventures of Pinocchio by Collodi, in the classroom of the university, with teachers of Early Childhood and Primary Education. Our main reference has been the nice edition that Galtzagorri published in 2011, which included the... [+]
“You learn walking and singing.” This has been one of the subjects this week in the groups of C2. It wasn't about learning to sing or walking, it was about using the future correctly. The activity has given me what to think and I've wondered how we learn to teach. I've heard... [+]
