“All lives” is the new album by Anabel Lee
The third album of Anabel Lee brings to light a band that, without forgetting its identity of origin, seems to have lost the fear of exploring new paths in which to get lost and thus ensure that everything flows without prejudice until they see where they are capable of going as a project. “All lives” Thus, it reflects the desire they have to appropriate brighter sounds, explore and break all kinds of creative and personal barriers that made them feel trapped without being able to grow as they wanted. Something that they tell well based on synths and guitars in “Fed up with walls”, closing theme of the album.
“All lives” It is an album full of ultimatums in every sense. First of all, towards the rest of the world, towards everything you don’t want in your life and don’t know how to let go or run away from it. But, also towards oneself to force oneself to bring about the necessary change that makes things happen once and for all, as shown in “DM” (“Everything I try goes wrong, let’s see if I learn to trust soon”). Theme with a final crescendo that could well represent the necessary push that we all need at some point in life. Anabel Lee Thus they take out their weapons again to defend the club from the losers and misunderstood. Demonstrate that they are much more interesting than the classic superhero that the movie sells you. Seeking to plan a long-awaited revenge that will return them to the place where they belong and hit everyone who did not trust them hard in the face (“Come play”).
Among the luxury collaborations we find that union with Despistaos in “Eternal Galván Park” painting the return to the neighborhood, the nostalgia, the memories that you look back on fondly but, in reality, many times you are too lazy to go and you don’t want them to eat your brain. A song that, on the other hand, has the production of Pau Paredes (Natalia Lacunza, Ginebras). Furthermore, the band continues to bet on generational connections and that idea of being worthy heirs connecting the soul of Anabel Lee with great figures like Sidonie in “State of mind”. Or, on the other hand, expressing respect and admiration for bands from their present as is the case of that “I shit on love” along with Magüi de Ginebras, one of the most popist cuts of the work.
And it is that “All lives” It reflects that a bit, what its own title says. A plurality of places to which Anabel Lee You can comfortably attend as a band to satisfy your desire to grow and get older. For this reason, although it is true that we really enjoy them when they toughen up a little more or when they exploit their punk vein. Pleasant surprises have also emerged from the search, such as that ska fusion that represented “Wilson.” So, in the end, the important thing is to understand that the group sings about freedom, about enjoying music and about not wanting to be labeled. To put an end to those absurd fears or inferiority complexes that make you feel different from the rest, without appreciating the positive in it. A feeling that we have all had to go through for some reason at some point in our lives.
