Delorean – The Metropolitan Death cdep

Delorean have definitely hit the dance floor. Their career, from that Silhouettes (Underhill, 02), through Delorean (Bcore, 04), has been that of a group in permanent search for the tension between the organic and the synthetic; a tension that was already sensed in the New Wave airs of his debut, and that entered into an open fight in his successor, combining the coldness of neon with the warm beating of the human heart. The guys from Zarautz give, in this peculiar release (four new songs almost identically titled plus their corresponding remixes), the last twist they had left to define their peculiar sound, moving away from trends to delve into science, coming up with the most balanced combination of drums (Igor), bass (Ekhi) and guitars (Tomás) (real, not sequenced) with analog keyboards (Unai) and dance syncope that they have offered us to date. Ekhi's howls bring the set to a lysergic climax as they break the stiff bass drum to quarter notes, and their lyrics (a nod to The Smiths included) make them true chroniclers of metropolitan club culture seen from the perspective of youngsters. punks who long ago tired of the walls of guitars to delve into the bowels of dance and nightlife. Thus, at the hands of top-flight dance partners like Undo & Vicknoise, DJCoco & Bombjack, D.A.R.Y.L, Montreal and Karlos Phazer, Delorean owns the dance floor to give them a few steps, even if the dance lasts until dawn and ends everything the world to the ground.
