APUNKALYPSE NOW: TRAMHAUS + HIDE

Tramhaus is the audacious post-punk sensation from the bustling and ever-innovative city of Rotterdam. In a relatively short existence, the band has managed to make a name for itself far beyond the borders of its hometown. Marked by its joyful and energetic experience, the band has proven it can convey this message both on stage and on record. Tramhaus's music is like the soundtrack to a living, mysterious, and dangerous story. There's no room to rest; the band takes you with them on a high-speed, emotionally charged, and euphoric ride, driven by stripped-down, fiery songs interwoven with fragile and abstract tones. All of this is fueled by the almost symbiotic relationship between the five band members.

In The Limiñanas family, I'd like to introduce the live musician. This is Alban, performing under the pseudonym HIDE, a self-taught multi-instrumentalist and singer who has accompanied the band on numerous tours and in extraordinary collaborations, including with Anton Newcombe. This year, he's stepping into the spotlight with the release of his album, Seven Heaven.

Once again, HIDE breaks the mold with twelve dense and beautifully orchestrated compositions. Our protagonist succeeds in telling stories through music that possess both an intimate and universal dimension, with tailor-made arrangements that make an impact on "Antelope," the opening track, before venturing out into more introspective themes on "A Night" and "Summer & Smoke."

Alternating between progressive and intense, with haunting tracks like "Magic Crossroads," "Letters," and "My December Dream," this musical journey impresses from the outset. This is all thanks to HIDE's multifaceted talent, which sets them apart with their eclecticism and unique take on romanticism. And what better way to be swept away than by the grace of "Last Night" and "Walk," or the spoken-word conclusion of the enchanting "Moscow Nice"? Seven Heaven is an absolute delight, leaving us speechless from the first note to the last. —Curious Ears
