| About Zinedines |
The Zinedines (or Les Zinedines, as they introduce themselves this time around) are corageous people, not afraid to take risks. They proved it by opening new paths so their Spanish peers could follow them: they pioneered the successful return to colourful psychedelia in Spanish independent pop scene, and they also spearheaded the Spanish psychedelic exports by releasing their references through American guitar-pop label Rainbow Quartz or playing international festivals such as the International Pop Overthrow.
Les Zinedines show their courage again by follwing their instinct, letting themselves go behind the purest hedonism of the real music lovers: releasing their new songs on a precious 7" vinyl, to be sold mainly in a Spanish market that has always been hostile to the format, and even more now when there's only a handful of shops that will store it. But vinyl is the perfect format for pop music, isn't it? Who says the record industry is going through a crisis? Not us! People is not buying records anymore? Vinyl is dead, people don't even have turntables anymore? So what? We do! And we're going to do what we want, that is, releasing a single like those we enjoy buying and playing at home.
The new single by Les Zinedines is already here (on a numbered edition, super limited to just 300 copies!), and it is really fabulous. The cover artwork -by a talented young artist from Ibiza, Marcos Torres- can tell you what's it all about: colourful sounds that look back towards a cinemascope past, but with the feet firmly stuck in the present and going forward from there. Great rock music with no expiry date, masterly crafted and with a superior touch of class and good taste.
As in the good singles that can be pride to be it, here we don't find an A-side nor a B-side. Both of the songs included on the record compete with each other to stay looking up on the turntable, each with its own charms. "In drag" is a guitar-led hard-glam stomper, meaning a stylistic turn for the band towards glitter-rock and a harder sound that could kick Materazzi out of the filed with just a power-chord. "A man called tomorrow's jellyboy", on the other hand, sticks to the already classic sound of the Majorcan band: majestic, elegant psychedelia, ethereal and trembling like the boy from the title, cimented over the usual virtuosism of Miquel on guitar. This record sees as well the return of Miquel Molines on drums, after a period where he was substituted by Martí Vallespir (now drummer in The Redsuns, another act on primerospasitos).
For a modest yet demanding record label like primerospasitos it's a big pleasure to release this new single by The Zinedines, a unique band in the Spanish scene, who have an untouchable repertoire of excellent songs. We hope you will enjoy these songs as much as we do.
