Nueva Vulcano: «Ahora estamos en un momento en el que el grupo tiene mucho peso en nuestras vidas»

Nueva Vulcano: "Ahora estamos en un momento en el que el grupo tiene mucho peso en nuestras vidas"

Con este post nos estrenamos en Sepia con entrevistas, y me estreno yo particularmente en el hacer las cosas más o menos cuando tocan y no tropecientos meses después. Todo ello con Nueva Vulcano, que vinieron a Valencia hace una semana a presentar su último lanzamiento, el espectacular Novelería (BCore, 2015), y a quienes pudimos entrevistar en La Rambleta. Gracias, Louise. Contexto: llevo escuchando con fruición a Nueva Vulcano desde hace diez años, y acojo con quinceañero entusiasmo cada paso en su carrera, sea un disco, un single, un concierto en Valencia o una mísera actualización en la … [Read more...]

Charisma meets creepy in La Punta

Charisma meets creepy in La Punta

Paella, punk or an alternative route through Valencia... La Punta begins at the periphery of what we perceive to be Valencia city, a stone's throw away from the City of Arts and Science and the El Saler shopping centre on Bulevar Sur. Calatrava's futuristic works and a speckling of newly built (and practically vacant) high rise flats are the last things that separate the centre from the fields, vegetable patches and lonely neighbourhoods that lie to the south and south west of the city. While there's no doubt you can get a banging paella at one of the famed restaurants in the area, like … [Read more...]

Valencia Underground II

"There’s something rumbling in the Valencian underground..." Last year I saw fit to write about the Valencian underground music scene. Or, at least, that's where it started. The truth is that Spain is in the midst of an alternative music boom, with gigs of both nationally famous and local bands taking place nearly every weekend, filling venues with loyal fanbases. Just this week basque rockers Berri Txarrak sold out in Barcelona and Valencia. Last month madrileños Toundra had a hugely successful run in Spain and are currently on the UK leg of a European tour. And not to mention the recent … [Read more...]

The bizarre world of Spanish squats

The bizarre world of Spanish squats

It's 5am and you're sat on a wooden box painted to look like a coffin in the middle of a muddy garden drinking a can of Carrefour beer. To your left there's a group of people clapping and singing flamenco; to your right, a gaggle of punks huddled around a threadbare sofa. This was the scenario we found ourselves in last weekend after we unwittingly stumbled upon L'Eskombrera - a CSO (Centro social ocupado, or squat house) in the vegetable fields around Benimaclet, Valencia. The huge building, which was probably once used as an alquería or farm house, lies at the end of a dark, narrow road … [Read more...]

Valencia underground

There's something rumbling in the Valencian underground, and we're not talking about the shoddy metro system... We left the ingeniously-dubbed Festunizer day-of-mayhem last October with feelings that maybe we were on the cusp of something big, something new. There has been a recent boom in hardcore/math rock/punk bands hailing from Valencia and we are quite literally witnessing a shift; a new scene is being born. This could change everything... 00:30am 27/10/13: Magazine club, in the Juan Llorens neighbourhood of Valencia, has just witnessed a 12 hour indie-punk-hardcore mash-up gig … [Read more...]
