Suicidas - Canciones Malditas Suicidas

Based between Barcelona and Vienna SUICIDAS have been slowly dropping punk gems on different seven inches for fourteen years. Working at their own pace and staying away from trends, the band has always kept their sound rooted in the most melodic side of early punk. Their output is sparse in quantity but simply flawless in quality up to this point. Their early singles have been collected on two singles compilations already.

Fast forward to 2024 and the band entered the studio to record their first full length. This time with the addition of a second guitarist, elevating their sound to new heights. Canciones Malditas has songs with riffs for days, and singalongs that stay with you forever. It has eleven idealistic anthems mixed with dejected love songs for the fuckups. Their influences are classic: LOST KIDS, COMMANDO 9MM, SCREAMING SNEAKERS, THE ADVERTS and more than anything their beloved RAMONES, from who they take the sharp driven punk rock, full of melody but sounding crude at the same time. With a super bright recording and a total atemporal approach to the genre, SUICIDAS signed a record that I find extremely hard to remove from the turntable.
