Any border in our memory gives rise to two possibilities, two paths. Every day, any border determines what will happen. one decision that will take precedence over the other. Being in Tijuana means that the road forks; it's either looking towards nearby San Diego and taking the California freeways and perhaps then traveling throughout the United States, or, on the contrary, taking in the view to the south, facing the distant Federal District and other Mexican cities and, if possible, the rest of Latin America. Each opinion brings its wisdom, its risks, and its possibilities. The quartet Glasmus confirms with his new EP, Vahum, that His goal is to the north, and his aesthetic intentions have been constructed for that purpose.
Vahum It's a compilation of 4 songs that, amidst their ambient experimentation and mind-blowing guitars, It suggests an intense journey overflowing with dark textures that defy all mental maps. The themes included in this production grip the listener and transport them to territories of thick smoothness and landscapes of dense weavings. Glasmus pilots a voyage that At times it transports us to the most rugged new wave of the 80s, And at other times it approaches the British shoegaze of the early nineties, while still managing to blend with current times. It's a good piece of work that will surely He has opportunities in alternative North American circles.
Glasmus has done a careful and elegant work in its result. Their intentions are to conquer the great north, but that doesn't stop us from saying that their songs They are worthy of being cared for anywhere on the planet.
