Las Aves releases "Die In Shanghai"
Las Aves are like a gang from the future. Mysterious, avant-garde... Their first album, Die In Shanghai comes as a blazing manifesto, unveiling a resolutely new kind of pop. White clothing, tattoos and arty imagery all set the tone for a disconcertingly modern sound.
The result is an ambitious album, unapologetically breaking with convention, where musical innovation meets the raw energy of an emotion set free. Art-Pop, Future Rock, Heavy R'n'B... call it what you will, there's really no way to describe this ingenious opus, whose 11 tracks hit you harder with every listen.
"We play complex music, but we want it to be accessible and immediate. Through artists like David Bowie, Odd Future and Portishead, we realised that a song can be strange, and highly experimental, but still have popular appeal. So that's exactly what we wanted to do with this album, bring something alien to work that's essentially pop".
