Sadfields from Mexico City advertise themselves as "Simply conduits of torrential noise" and, as could be expected, it's this sort of advertisement that really draws my attention. The Daniel Espinoza, Miguel Flores and Erick Román trio can indeed kick asses and smash with a wall of sound like not everybody can.
It can be sensed almost through the whole album but I was particularly hit with "Falling Apart" in which the quiet introduction is a classic trap that aims to surprise the audience with the incoming loudness. And is particularly fitting for the song about human and his self falling apart. Just as suggested by the name of the band, they have this attraction to melancholy and sadness, they sing about longing, being lost and powerlessness. And the way to express those couldn't be more fitting - balancing between noise, blackgaze and wave is how it should be done.
In their country they are known as an on-stage chaos and I can see that quite clearly.
"Homesick" costs 80 MXN.
