Cenicienta Dijo Basta: Kike Suarez y La Desbandada

I love this band. Their sound is just so fun and rich. You can tell from their recent tune/video combo that they came out with not too long ago. It's about a warped Cinderella (not recommended for children lol). Enjoy! The video is quite interesting as well.

KIKE SUÁREZ & LA DESBANDADA- "Cenicienta Dijo Basta" (2011)
Cenicienta fue de fiesta
Así perdió la cabeza
Tanto fue que la perdió
Que se creyó una princesa

Como princesa feliz
Comió príncipe y perdiz
El príncipe salió rana
La princesita vegana

Así fue pasando el tiempo
Y se repetía el cuento
De la mujer que se hace
Solo si a un hombre conoce

Tras las primeras caricias
Y los polvos de colores
Fue llegando la desidia
Cocinera a tus labores

Y los pies tan doloridos
De rotos y descosíos
Tras dos mil días sin fiesta
Cenicienta dijo basta

Plantando cara a “su hombre”
Le dije: tú no eres mío
Que yo tuya nunca fui
Aquí paz y después gloria

Fin de la historia, fin de la historia,
Fin de la historia, fin de la historia

Tú los estás flipando chaval
Si pretendes que me quepa el zapato de cristal
Tú lo estás flipando chaval
Contigo no encuentra rima mi dignidad

Y lloró lo que tenía
Que era mucho y muy tapado
Y por el camino andado
Fue llenándolo de amigas:

De Blancanieves que pasan
De que las besen dormidas
Caperucitas que odian
Cazadores salvavidas

Qué voy a morir conmigo
Y conmigo voy a nacer
Que lo entiendas o no, amigo
No pienso perder la vez

Y se limpió de su noche
Larga noche de mujer
Puso flores en su piel
Y bailó danza del vientre

Y pudo enseñar los dientes
Lo bonito de su risa,
Y nadie le metió prisas
Ni le cuestionó los trapos

Nadie puede hacerle daño
Pisando ningún derecho
Que tener pelo en el pecho
Nunca dio derecho a nadie

Derecho a nadie, ni sobre nadie
Derecho a nadie, ni sobre nadie

Tú los estás flipando chaval
Si pretendes que me quepa el zapato de cristal
Tú lo estás flipando chaval
Contigo no encuentra rima mi dignidad

Basta
Da una patada, llama un hada y dice:
Basta
Que desde dentro le dice: Ya basta
Y ella sola se basta

Gusto
Se muere de gusto
Cuando entre los muslos
El placer de una ola de mar

Prelude:
Los Carniceros del Norte, is like a soup with vegetables from different farms. Basically, they're one of those project bands with a collaboration/mix of members from different bands (La Casa Usher, Paralitikos, and Naughty Zombie, all important in their own right)
I came across this horror-punk/death-rock band of butchery and horror flicks after a friend of mine asked me for help in getting him more info on this band he had been told about. So I researched them and ultimately fell in love with their stabbing sound. Besides their music and their atrociously addicting visual aspect, I love many other things about this band. For instance: how many bands do you know that let you download free songs? Not many, but they do! To me, that makes them just a bit more humble and all about the art of music. After all, it should all be about the music... FYI their blog has many songs for download. If you want something to pump you up Monday mornings while you're driving to work (hungover and depressed that the weekend is over) listen to these guys, otherwise, go back to bed, ya sissy.

The sound:
Their sound, in normal terms, can be deciphered as "horror punk," "post punk," and/or "death rock." I'm not one to like typical labeling terms so I'll use my own. I can consider their sound to be something I would hear at a punk show that breaks out at a funeral with the deceased person rising from the grave as a zombie, jumping into the mosh pit, ultimately turning it into a party. It's a morbidly exciting sound packed with energy, butcher knives and cult-classic monsters. They touch a lot on horror films and a non depressive gloom.
I can't pinpoint where the (zombified) heart of this band is because all band members contribute such a wonderful energy in their own right. Txarly's vocals give it the eerie force that transports you to the zombie prom night-feel. However, H.Zombie's guitar, Nando's bass, and Gorka's drums equally spit out that head banging energy. They have released "Santa Sangre" (2011) earlier this year (with quite a few albums under their belt).



My Song Suggestions:
I would suggest "Miss Muerte" (translated to: Miss Death) from this new album, along with "Las Tres Caras Del Miedo" (for a more subtle sound), and "Amantes de Ultratumba." However, the whole CD is great. Some cult classics I would throw in the mix include "doctor Caligari," "Un Dia en Texas," and a personal fave "Mundo Salvaje." Hell, just listen to all their albums, they're great all over. And after all, with song suggestions, I'm being biased anyway.



Video:

Finding a good live video on this band is hard. This is the best one I could get, enjoy the slaughter.

Recent/Present tour activity:
The band has a decent following and have toured in different European countries. I would die for a chance to see them in concert (but rest assured, someday I will). I am also attempting to rally support to get this band out to Hollywood and get them some much deserved recognition in LA. They deserve to play at The Roxy, The Whisky A-Go-Go, the Troubadour, or the Knitting Factory.
However, for the time being they only have one show coming up in France on February 24, 2012 at Le Klub Paris, FR - 10:00 PM
