The new 7-inch with four new songs by Kinki Boys surprises us once again with another turn of the screw in their infinite path to eclecticism. New rhythms and reminiscences of other styles, not always linked to rock and roll, take us to the personal world of Kinki Boys, where everything is possible and nothing is what it seems.

The album opens with ‘La Ría’, a nervous and dynamic song where Marga shines with her voice, deeper and more metallic than other times, with a rhythmic base that goes like a shot with Mikel's effective and sharp riffs. In ‘Denso y aéreo’ the rhythm takes over the song that advances like a runaway train straight to the precipice. The song is dense, dark and perfectly danceable. It moves through new musical terrain for Kinki Boys. ‘Atrapado’ could be the most Kinki Boys track. Unsettling and driving while still being surprising. The vinyl closes with perhaps the most daring song on the album, ‘El País de las Maravillas’. Over a typical swing rhythm, the band creates a dynamic and cheerful song with harsh lyrics that speak of the deceit of a first world in which the rich get richer and richer and the poor have fewer and fewer opportunities to get out of poverty.

Four songs that are apparently different from each other and at the same time have the unique and inimitable stamp of the Kinki Boys. Translated with DeepL.com (free version).
