Hablaremos Del Miedo

In their new album Nadadora have managed to refine their style - the songs sound more sparkling and the emotions are more intensely transmitted. The solid foundation of the guitars is still present, as are the breathtaking beat changes which have made this band so singular. 

　

“Hablaremos de miedo” is the band’s most ambitious take on the various paths of pop and rock and the way they handle them to sculpt their very own sound. Variety is one of the staples of this record, and the band show their improving skills in songwriting, as they move further away from the formula of previous installments: instead of the usual bunch of hit-singles that made up the backbone of their past records, on “Hablaremos de miedo” we do find them too (“Tú y cuántos como tú”, “El bosque”, “La forma” or “Frágil”) but we also are presented with grower songs such as “Después de todo”, “Al final (todo arde)” or “La electricidad en el hueso”. Plus, as usual, the indispensable song in Galician (“Todo o mundo protesta”) and the album closer, a duet performed by Sara and singer Aldo Linares. 

“Hablaremos de miedo” features another great improvement - it features all sorts of wind, brass and string arrangements, which stress the epic tone of many of the songs and put Nadadora in the same league as bands such as The Delgados o Stars. Such new arrangements, which they plan to feature onstage, will surely enhance the already hymn-like characteristics of their live act, as proved in many of their succesful concerts such as FIB 2006, Contempopranea 2005, El Sol (Madrid) 2006 or La Fábrica de Chocolate (Vigo) 2006.
