LA INQUISICION from Barcelona is releasing their third album.
The cover of the new release already looks dark and ominous.
What can we expect?
The first seconds of the new album, which opens with the track “Side,” begin with a heavy, dark bass line, and then the four-member band starts their music.
What comes out of the speakers is really heavy. It feels like a large, black entity that slowly builds up more and more.
LA INQUISICION has a very distinctive and strong sound. This could be called Dark-Punk. A category that is rarely addressed and, to my knowledge, does not have many bands in it. However, LA INQUISICION has secured an honorary place in this category with “Mundo Invisible.”
While the ten new songs also feature many choruses and beautiful, melodic guitar playing, it never drifts into “summer-sun-good mood” music.
Much of this is, of course, due to the vocals, which are absolutely fitting. Heavy, rough, angry, loud, and always with an aura that, in connection with the music, has at least a dark undertone.
The songs, all kept at mid-tempo, are captivating. Even when the sun is shining and the mood is good, the band draws you in with their sound.
Escaping is almost pointless. This speaks for the band and their power.
The band will go on an extensive tour in the fall, mainly in Spain. However, the first two concerts of the tour will take place in Germany.
Here are the tour dates for Germany:
11.10.2024 Don´t Panic Essen
12.10.2024 SO36 Berlin
Anyone looking to experience something unusual in the realm of punk rock should head to Essen or Berlin. What the band offers is not ordinary.
