Latorre and Sergi Algiz is a specialist in shedding skin and gladly combines new heteronyms in Fake is Real, their sophomore album after their self titled debut in 2018 and subsequent EPs Against Strong Thinking and Maybe a Body, which have been full of reinterpretations and remixes. Another sign is that they trust their modus operandi to mutation and the idea that nothing is ever quite said. It’s been three years of work, growth and numerous performances in venues and festivals throughout Europe. In Fake is Real, SDH goes out once again in search of nightclubs that are familiar, but never obvious. The occasion is tremendous and the list of honorees is select: beginning with the producer Kris Baha, who has provided forcefulness to the rhythmic base and prominence to the voices. The dress code transcends the categories of dark wave, to dress as mischievous EBM, with accessories from new dance, acid house and disrupted but melodic techno, with structured twists that come to caress the electronic psychedelia. Ready to play? Let's play. Let's change our epidermis, let's confuse our coats in the dark. Knowing that only in the dark is where everything unpronounceable can have a place, they dedicate first track Balance to John Balance from Coil. With a quote from Lord Chandos, it seems that words can rot in their mouths -the words get stuck and I want them to dance- and, nevertheless, they manage to make us dance above all the unspeakable. Denial starts from a tribute to Pasolini and to absolute denial, it sounds wayward and the message is an anarchist categorical. It is followed by the threatning Talk In Dreams, which highlights the musical bestiality that is generated between Sergi Algiz and Andrea P. Latorre, and Hollowed Out, an ambient siren song with a final twist that takes us back to the dance floors of the 90s. Cellular Sky takes us to more danceable horizons that blend into the acid house twisted fantasy of Do I Look Like I'm Laughing?, one of the oldest compositions of the band that finally lets itself be seen in dim light. Our Fear puts techno between the strings and Greedy adds more dysphoria to the synth wave, moving towards disco music. Finally, Hectic is a song that hacks all the musical structures that have influenced the band, becoming the cornerstone of their most restless album. A work open to so many influences, that it gives a pleasant vertigo to be involved in it. If you've ever been afraid of the night, Fake is Real offers you a reconciliation with all its rhythms that invites you to move together in the club. Out worldwide on June 30 on black vinyl LP, CD & Digital. ___ DISCLAIMER: All tracks are uploaded in a low quality for promotional purposes only and with buy links to respect label and artists.
