Noche Triste

Coco (guitar and bass), Hugo (drums and drum machine), Morgan (vocals and guitar) and Theo (bass and Korg MS-20 synthesizer) have decided to beef up its sound by moving towards more krautrock, post punk and electronic sounds in order to obtain an explosive mix more sharper and efficient than ever, as it synthesizes the saturations of punk and kraut with a cleaner and more percussive sound driven by drum machines and other fiddling. Noche Triste is a real kraut punk gem that can be swallowed in one go like a shot of tequila and that you will want to put on replay instantly. This album clearly allows Guadal Tejaz to pass a notch above with evocative name hits like "Valley of Hate" or "Krautoxic". That track keeps all the promises of its title, because it mixes with a DIY mastery a kind of ultra stirring synthetic kraut with a stentor punk vocal that makes you particularly addicted, without forgetting a wah-wah guitar that slams hard and drives the whole.
