11/ 2011 New release: ES 2233 Conspiracy Against Truth - Conspiracy Against Truth

ES 2233 Conspiracy Against Truth - Conspiracy Against Truth

There was a time that those who played rock and roll thought about using music to express emotions and not about marketing strategies. Rock meant youth, rebellion, nonconformity, an out of control libido and, above all, honesty. To tell directly what we think, what we feel, using our own words, at all volume and not caring about the consequences. The name of the ganre changed (rock, hard rock, heavy, punk, grunge) but the music was the same, the archetype was the same, the message was yet the same, always simple, direct, al all volume and brutally honest.

If that's the definition of rock, then rock and roll is back. Taken by the hand by a band from Argentina known as CAT, which means Conspiracy Against Truth. A curious name for a band that is not afraid of telling its truth.
  
Conspiracy Against Truth was formed in 2008 outside of Buenos Aires, their home city. It was formed in sunny San Francisco, California, USA, when the now members of CAT went on a tour as part of other band ("a forgettable one" they claim) that broke up there. In San Francisco they experienced first hand the free spirit of Californian rock, a combination of freedom, tolerance, honesty, musical purity and above all, professionalism (California is, after all, the world capital of entertainment). That trip, that served as an initiation, lasted several months and when the bandmembers returned to Buenos Aires they had an idea in mind, that turned into a mission: to start a band in Argentina representing the spirit they found in San Francisco. It was going to be real rock and roll, simple, direct, brutal, honest and professional.

Almost three years passed, and the proof that they made it is on the table. Eternal Sunday, the Argentinean label specialized in releasing local music in English, presents Conspiracy Against Truth's debut album, called simply as the band. Conspiracy Against Truth contains 10 powerful tracks, pure adrenaline. The album begins with the furious rock of "Sixx", moves to the more radio-oriented "Shine" that it's replaced by the acoustic guitars of "Could Have Been" and goes to the mid tempo "Lights Out", that seems to be a ballad until the distorted guitars break into the chorus. "Welcome Back" has a longer intro and seems to talk about what the band found when they came back from California. "Feel The Heat" has a nonchalantly quality that makes the listener wonder if it was written on a beach. Then the love song comes (if it can be called like this), "Senior High (The Girl Of The Year)", about a girl that seems to think she's very important. It is followed by "Anger And Hate", about rock favorite emotions, "Rabbit Skin", with its classic guitar riffs and finally "Slide", that with its six minutes and a half repeats as a mantra the verse "we're going nowhere". Repetition that, at this stage of the album, efficiently transmits the kind of emotions and the perception of the world experimented by any young rocker of any age, no matters if from sunny San Francisco or from humid Buenos Aires. Conspiracy Against Truth is an album that makes you feel suffocated and amazed, that it's delicate at the same time that it's brutal and distorted, naïve as the album cover colours and deep in its conception, that makes us free by showing us the bars of the prisons we make for ourselves.

Band influences? The ones that are expected. Classic hard rock from the 70's like AC/ DC and Led Zeppelin, grunge/ alternative from the 90's (Nirvana, Faith No More, Rage Against The Machine, Foo Fighters), a little electronic touch like Nine Inch Nails, all filtered through the spirit of punk rock from California, with a Hollywood professionalism. Made in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to shout from the south what the world is afraid to tell.

ES 2233 Conspiracy Against Truth - Conspiracy Against Truth

Hubo una época en la los que hacían rock and roll pensaban más en expresar emociones a través de la música que en preparar estrategias de márketing aptas para todo público. El rock se asociaba con la juventud, la rebeldía, el inconformismo, la libido descontrolada y, sobre todo, la honestidad. Decir en la cara de los demás lo que se piensa, lo que se siente, lo que se vive, enunciado con las propias palabras y a todo volumen sin importar las consecuencias. El nombre del género fue variando (rock, hard rock, heavy, punk, grunge), pero la música era la misma, el arquetipo era el mismo, el mensaje era el mismo, siempre simple, directo, a todo volumen y honestamente brutal.

Si esa es la definición de rock, el rock and roll está de regreso. De la mano de una banda argentina cuyas iniciales CAT son la abreviatura de Conspiracy Against Truth. Curioso nombre ("conspiración contra la verdad") para una banda que no se calla nada.

Conspiracy Against Truth se formó en 2008, lejos de Buenos Aires, la ciudad donde luego desarrollarían su carrera. Se formó en la soleada San Francisco, en California, Estados Unidos cuando los ahora miembros de CAT fueron de gira con otra banda local ("olvidable", comentan) que se disolvió a poco de llegar. En San Francisco experimentaron de primera mano el espíritu libre del rock californiano, que combina a la vez la libertad, la tolerancia, la honestidad y la pureza musical con el profesionalismo (California es, después de todo, la capital mundial del entretenimiento). Luego de ese viaje iniciático de varios meses los ahora CAT regresaron a la mucho más melancólica y formal Buenos Aires con una idea convertida en misión: crear la banda de rock argentina que representara el espíritu que habían mamado en San Francisco. Iba a ser una banda que expresara los ideales aprendidos en San Francisco: rockera de verdad, simple, directa, brutal, honesta y no por eso poco profesional.

Pasaron casi tres años y sobre la mesa está la prueba de que lograron lo que se habían propuesto. Eternal Sunday, el sello argentino especializado en música local en inglés, presenta el álbum debut de Conspiracy Against Truth, llamado simplemente como la banda. Conspiracy Against Truth contiene 10 poderosos tracks que son adrenalina pura. El disco comienza con el rock furioso de "Sixx", pasa por la más radial "Shine", que es reemplazada por las guitarras acústicas de "Could Have Been" y por la mid tempo "Lights Out" que parece ser una balada hasta que entra una oleada de guitarras distorsionadas en el estribillo. "Welcome Back" tiene una intro más larga y parece hablar del mundo que la banda encontró a su regreso de California. "Feel The Heat" tiene una cualidad algo despreocupada que parece que hubiese sido compuesta en una playa. Viene luego la canción de amor (si es que se puede llamar así) "Senior High (The Girl Of The Year)", acerca de una chica que parece creerse demasiado importante. La siguen "Anger And Hate", acerca de las emociones favoritas del rock, "Rabbit Skin" con sus riff de guitarras clásicos e impecables y por último "Slide", que con sus seis minutos y medio repite una y otra vez como un mantra el "we're going nowhere" (no vamos a ningún lado). Repetición que, a esta altura del álbum, transmite eficientemente la clase de emociones, de precepción del mundo que experimenta cualquier joven rockero de cualquier época, en la soleada California o en las húmedas noches de Buenos Aires. Conspiracy Against Truth es un disco que ahoga y que maravilla a la vez, que es prolijo y delicado al mismo tiempo que distorsionado y brutal, naif en los colores de la portada y profundo en su concepción, que nos libera mostrándonos los barrotes de las prisiones que nosotros mismos nos construimos.

¿Las influencias de la banda? Las esperables. Hard rock clásico de los '70, de AC/ DC a Led Zeppelin, pasando por el grunge de los '90 (Nirvana, Faith No More, Rage Against The Machine, Foo Fighters) con un toquecito industrial/ electrónico a lo Nine Inch Nails, todo tamizado por el espíritu del punk rock californiano, con el profesionalismo de Hollywood. Hecho en Buenos Aires, Argentina, para gritar desde el sur lo que el mundo calla.
