  • Bio

    "Some Monsters Die And Others Return" (Foehn, 2010) is the second album by Marina Gallardo (1984, Spain). Was recorded in her hometown El Puerto de Santa María (Cádiz, Spain), produced by herself and Paco Loco, and mastered by Roger Seibel (Bill Callahan, Howe Gelb, M. Ward...)..... In her first album "Working to Speak", Marina introduced the idea of expressing herself through innovative language and which gave her and her music a raw subsistence. In "Some Monsters Die And Others Return", words seem to have found their own identity in the shape of terrible and dark omnipresent monsters telling their own stories. "A Beast In Me", "Monsters" and "Golden Ears" bring us on a journey through the shadows that obscure the conscience of daily life. The lyrics in New Worlds, "men need to make new worlds apart from this one" probably means that this world is a place of exile for those who are willing to be honest. .... "Some Monsters Die And Others Return" could also be understood as a type of mutant biography, which goes from the origins of the conscience ("Nora") to the maturity of the person and artist that one finds at the end. So, despite the fact that "the world is almost done" ("The Squawking Bird"), we have no other choice but to put up with it and invent another. From a lyrical point of view, one can understand "Some Monsters Die And Others Return" as the pinnacle of the journey noted in "Working to Speak". On the other hand from a purely musical point of view, this second album can be seen as, not only, a progression but also a return to roots. The album introduces us to an essential, atmospheric, hypnotic and mysterious way. In front of this way, the warmless and the harshness of Marina's voice define the sense. The percussion, rhythm, harmony and clear articulation blend together forming a beautiful world of their own. The three instrumental pieces are a crucial contribution that lends to creating this impression. In "Interlude (The Pines)", "Trembling Bones" and "Sea Song", the absence of voice is replaced by the guitar chords, which bring this extraordinary journey to a close. - Foehn Records <a href="www.foehnrecords.com/marinagallardo"></a>
