413

Band's Request

413 is the name behind which hides the young basque David Pisabarro. This vocationally self-taught bass player first cut his teeth in various local-scene bands, in which he began to realize his maverick skills as a musician and writer, even as a constant caregiver of sounds, textures, layers and lyrics. Always delving into the dark side of art and the human being, 413’s music is passionate, seeker of new limits on the conventions that have been established gradually in contemporary music, feeling increasingly more comfortable in the experimental edge of the art and of itself , somewhere between what we label post-folk and post-rock, not ever dreading the risk of the very concept of sound. This passion also translates into a never-ending effort to soak up every single detail that will serve in his relationship with music or the learning process itself, as an author and as a producer.

pq

Band's Request

pq is a cinematic tapestry of lush melodies, merging endless layers of prepared guitars with crisp electronica. Propagating on - though not necessarily drawing from - influences ranging from Canadian apocalyptical post-rock to Nordic indietronica, and occasionally incorporating classical elements along the way, pq provides a most titillating soundtrack to any willing contemporary image.

Les Doux

Band's Request

Great band, needs a lot more listeners. If you are a fan of the new wave of scremo/post-hardcore (Touche Amore, La Dispute, Pianos Become Teeth) bands then you are sure to love this one. Although this band is different because of the prominent bluesy-guitar riffs. If you want something powerful and emotional this is ideal for you.

Town Portal

Band's Request

Town Portal play instrumental rock that crosses borders of genres. Tapping on experience from earlier endeavors in genres like death metal, shoegaze and math rock, the three members bring components of it all into a melting pot, creating a unique niche of original melodies and harmonies, fixated on a skeleton of complex and playful rhythm structures. Under the dogma of forsaking vocals and other superfluous effects, the band throw themselves into a search of new meaningful ways to compose tones over time, with a heavy and dry precision.

The Lowest

For me this is a hardcore debut of the year. Heavy beatdown-hardcore music, with strong methaphorical lyrics and passion. Whole album shows how fragile we are: "we are the lowest; there is no hope for us; there's no tomorrow; we break like glass". Highly recommended!
