Menguante

From the Whisper to the Absence. 

On tuesday we had the pleasure to attend Menguante's showcase in McCarty's Napoles. The band from Mexico City gave us a small sample of how their new album is gonna be like. 



Promoting their new album, Del Suspiro, A La Ausencia and thewir brand new videoclip, Soledad, this lads are setting their way for the rest of 2019, with new goals and high expectatives, Menguante has the means to create several new music throughout the years. 



After a few words about the production and creative work they did with this album (produced by José Luis Escamilla: a legend among Mexico's local escene) the band proceeded to play their instruments and show us a few tracks. 



I liked how this band described themselves as a mere rock band, not giving a damn about labels on music genre, they play a huge role now with years of experience. 

It will be just a matter of time to see this lads live and loud on a stage.

Chernobyl

The Fear Is Real.

HBO did it again, after Game Of Thrones ended in a not so positive way, Chernobyl rised as one of the best series yet. 



With just a few episodes coming to put an end to this great miniseries, Chernobyl has become a huge phenomena around the world, exposing a constant fear, the actions made by the soviet government and the side effects from one of the most shocking disasters in the world lived by human race. 

Yes, the disaster suffered in the nuclear power plant, Chernobyl, is now a television miniseries brought by HBO, begun in May 6th with huge impact, we decided to write a few words about it. 



This Thriller has everythig you need to spend the day at home, good acting and performances, a well written screenplay and  a meticulously treatment about the situations and conflicts among the plot. Since the begining of the disaster, through the denial and the response from the soviet gorvernment, the constant fear and a second look on the nuclear activities. 

The fear this series manage is real, we're not in front of a fictional scenary, no, Chernobyl exposes a real state of fear and angst, away from any monsters or spectres created by television, here the fear is real. 



Starring Jared Harris, Stellan Skarsgard, Emily Watson and the irish singer Jessie Buckley with many others giving the series a profesional and quiet good acting position, this series becomes a warning, about the victims and the efforts to offset the damage. 

The question this series brings to us is: Are we awere of our decisions and ways to react against a disaster like this? Are our efforts to save the planet enough to prevent something like this? 

We're too vulnerable as a specie.

Chernobyl will get its finale on June 3th.

To enjoy this post and series we made a playlist with the best from NIN, track related to this kind of feeling we got from watching Chernobyl: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5yGXq5LGA0wZMWyTZhD0yg
