Limited and numbered Edition of strictly 600 copies!
Special reissue, with a bonus LP!, of Pulsión: an album originally released in 2009 and not available on vinyl for more than twelve years. Includes for the first time on vinyl the 5 exclusive tracks from the original CD version.
Esplendor Geométrico style continues having a unique and unmistakable mark that distinguishes them from later bands they have had influence onto. At first sight, Pulsión is pure Industrial hypnosis based on the electronic manipulation of sounds together with irresistible rhythms, repetitive, machine-like, industrial, hypnotic, sometimes tribal, sometimes danceable, that mix up with voices and chants. Some of them are taken fom traditional arab and oriental musics (Mongolia, China,Tibet…) to be later electronically manipulated, others are simply speech fragments, as the one of a leader of a radical political party in Japan, or an anti-occidental harangue from an islamist leader. But the idea of EG is not to transmit any political or ideological message, the spurces have been chosen for their strength and sonority.
New cover design by Juan Carlos Sastre, founding member of E.G., inspired by the original one.
Released Late August 2023 by Geometrik Records.
