A Santa Compaña

Golpes Bajos

Galician post-punk legends created a pop record that acts like a fever dream of angular rhythms. The band blended cynical lyrics with infectious melodies, keeping the result fresh for decades.

Produced during the Movida Madrileña, the album benefits from a minimalist aesthetic that highlights the interaction between icy synthesizers and funky basslines. It defines the Spanish new wave era through its tension between dance grooves and introspection.
