esplendor geometrico の新作が登場! 2008年から2009年に作られ、すでにライブでも演奏している9曲(うち5曲はCDヴァージョンにのみ)を収録。催眠的な反復インダストリアル・ビートに、凶暴なパーカッション、モンゴルやチベットなどの伝統音楽の断片が盛り込まれたEG節炸裂サウンド。さらに今作では、スピーチや人の声を多く用いており、ユニークな効果をもたらしています。なかでも1曲目「Japo」では日本の野党系政治家による街頭演説をカットアップ。インダストリアル・ビートと絶妙にマッチして、狂気じみた恐ろしい世界を生み出しています。

Pulsio'n is the new album of Esplendor Geometrico, the influential and acclaimed Spanish duo of survivors of the second Industrial wave on the first eighties. It includes nine tracks recorded between november 2008 and May 2009. Some have been already played in their last performances in Leipzig, Madrid and Barcelona with great success. Pulsio'n is in fact the album that follows Compuesto de Hierro (2003) as 8 Traks and Live (2007) can be considered as a transition, being a record made to go with the DVD, and contained some tracks that were in fact versions of older ones. Esplendor Geome'trico style continues having a unique and unmistakable mark that distinguishes them from later bands they have had influence onto. At first sight, Pulsio'n is pure Industrial hypnosis based on the electronic manipulation of sounds together with irresistible rhythms, repetitive, machine-like, industrial, hypnotic, sometimes tribal, sometimes danceable, that mix up with voices and chants. Some of them are taken fom traditional arab and oriental musics (Mongolia, China,Tibet…) to be later electronically manipulated, others are simply speech fragments, as the one of a leader of a radical political party in Japan, Che Guevara, or an anti-occidental harangue from an islamist leader. But the idea of EG is not to transmit any political or ideological message, the spurces have been chosen for their strength and sonority. The first edition in CD is in digipack + booklet. There will be also a limited vinyl edition (500 copies) on mid September containing four tracks of the CD and two exclusive tracks for that format. Recorded in Beijing and Roma (2008-2009) by Arturo Lanz and Saverio Evangelista. All tracks composed by Arturo Lanz.
