"Favourite" artist

Sorry for the delay, but I just got my driver license this morning haha. So... favourite artist, i don't really have one since i have a big heart for a lot of them. Between Muse, Radiohead, Coldplay, Arctic monkeys and even some metal bands from my childhood, it is my duty to talk about newcomers, so I introduce you all to “Nothing but Thieves”. 

An English rock band ( mostly alternative rock and electronic rock)  who likes to explore all kinds of styles in the rock genre. They only have 2 albums, and the last one, “Broken machine” just got out September 8th of this year. Well, their style is very experimental while the instruments: guitars, bass and drums (and some synths in between) are played in a very simple way (especially the drums). The combination of that simplicity, plus the experimental thing, PLUS THE VOCALS!!!! GOD THEY’RE AMAZING, made them great to listen. Well, the lyrics are very variant, but the core is always free will agaisnt a social structure, just like the song “broken machine” from the homonym album, “Excuse me” and “i was just a kid” are 2 other examples.

I like them since 2016, when i listen to the song “Ban all the music” from their 1st álbum (released on 2015) on spotify, and i love it on the 1st listen. I like it because of the crazyness of the song, the part when Connor sang: “Play an ilegal song, and turn it up out louder!” with that beautiful falsetto it’s… explosive and cathartic.

Enough fanboying for today, here are some songs, enjoy it and turn it up out louder!

blog 3: dark past, funny stories

 So this time i'm going to talk about a funny anecdote of my school life, NOT my university life which has more interesting ones haha maybe another time. Ok so i was 13 years old and every year we have the alliances, to celebrate the anniversary of the school. And this time they were pretty boring, specially for the man (u know, were also in the "edad del pavo" thing). It was only 3 days of playing football and table games for me, which i regret a bit right now because on my last years of school  i did a lot for the anniversary (as i said, "edad del pavo") .So, on the last day i remember that my multiplayer membership on my xbox was about to expire, (a membership that allows people to play on the internet, and it's not free :c) so me and my very good friend Tom wanted to play Halo 3 (never liked it, but it has fun multiplayer) so we decided to escape.

We thought of jumping the gates from the back of my school. So we gave our bags to one of my classmates and told him to throw it to us once me and my friend jump the gates. It was our first time escaping, so we did it, WE JUMP! It took forever in our minds, but we were on the street, free from the school and Halo 3 was so close, we were just waiting for our classmate to throw the bags to our side. He was taking too long, so we look on a hole on the gates and… he was paying like 5 kids to keep their mouth shut after they seen us. My friend wanted to run anyways, but me, the stubborn 13 years old me, just stand there waiting. On the last second I thought “ok yeah, better run” but a teacher caught us both….

Yeah yeah, to the principals office, talk to our head teacher, all our classmates looking at us, our bags safe and sound on our classroom. But we f%$#”ng played Halo 3 after that on my house, and we enjoyed it. After that we have to talk to our parents :c.

 Next time you probably hear a more interesting anecdote, with the police and everything haha so see you around.
