Hey guys! After a year and a half we are back charging full steam ahead with the release of our latest album "Songs For The Road Towards The End Of The World" this past May 31, 2009. Unlike our two previous releases this was a long duration album (LP) featuring 12 all created by Pete Drown. Mike Mellow participated in the album by co-producing it and creating the art. The first single is called "Ciento Once Grados" (111 Degrees) and we have a brief video/slideshow teaser for it on our page.

We want to invite you to download our free album and share with us your feedback. All you have to do is click on the Cover art either on this message or by visiting our myspace page. There you can also download our previous two EP's if you don't have them already.

So, that being said, I hope you download it, I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you let us know. Thanks again. Micro out...

Te dejo esto y animo a venirte este JUEVES 5/3/09 a ver y oir a una de las bandas con más proyección en la escena Funk de BCN


Nota:
Subversalles tiene el placer de presentar un concierto mensual (el primer jueves de cada mes) con formaciones que destaquen por una marcada calidad musical, conexión con el público y espiritu negroide. Por eso sobran motivos para empezar este jueves con... THE SLINGSHOTS
The Slingshots se creó en agosto de 2008 con la idea de recordar y recuperar la energía rítmica del deep funk, las cálidas melodías vocales del soul y la riqueza instrumental del jazz, desde sus orígenes hasta hoy.

Su directo contará con ritmos bien calculados y dulces melodías para así, poder transmitir la música con todo su cuerpo a cualquier oyente con ganas de bailar, disfrutar sonidos y compartir la energía de un buen concierto de funk actual.

Te esperamos!!!
