Nueva review de Sangre Grande en The Obelisk!! Muchas gracias!! Spanish heavy rockers The Dust Bowl released their second album, Sangre Grande, late last year and with it, they revel in grunge and desert rock atmospherics. Produced and mixed by guitarist César Royo (also organ, percussion, harmonica, etc.), it’s a vigilantly straightforward offering, delving into pop showmanship on “Bad Feeling,” but otherwise nestling cleanly into the post-QOTSA milieu of crunchy tones, strong hooks and melodic vocals. “Flow down this River” might be its most “the ’90s” moment, but there’s some stiff competition in that regard, while the quietly pulsing “Aqua de 1000 Cactus” brings to mind Kyuss‘ “Space Cadet” before the title-track finishes out in more raucous instrumental fashion. Touches of acoustic guitar, percussion, djembe, organ, backing vocals, and so on give their arrangements more depth than they might otherwise have, but at their core, The Dust Bowl – Royo, vocalist José Ángel Navarro, bassist Alejandro “Vilo” Viloria and drummer Manuel Navarro — are well rooted in the tenets of their genre, and they bring forth an able execution thereof. - See more at: theobelisk.net/obelisk/2015/01/16/the-obelisk-radio-black-pussy-time-rift-the-dust-bowl-the-sorrows-einstein-rosen/#sthash.RRGQHSns.dpuf theobelisk.net/obelisk/2015/01/16/the-obelisk-radio-black-pussy-time-rift-the-dust-bowl-the-sorrows-einstein-rosen/
