It’s been almost two years since Dávila 666’s breakthrough Tan Bajo graced us with absolute freshness in its own unadulterated rock revivalism spirit. Ever since, the Puerto Rican ensemble has maintained a pretty active rhythm, gaining success after success. Following last year’s split with The Coathangers and the explosive 7” Pa Qué Vives , 2013 is the year that finds rebel singer-bassist AJ Dávila taking a shot at his own new solo project. This news comes as extremely exciting for our staff. Considering the list of collaborators that will take part in the boricua’s [...]

Davila 666 - Pa Que Vives (via discosafariradio )
Time for a little bit of aural time travel. Let's look back, reflect, and contemplate... what were we listening to one year ago? Listen to the February 2011 Mix and find out. You can stream (and scrobble ) all the songs in this mix using the ex.fm player at the bottom of the page OR you can just download any or all of the tracks at your leisure and play them using a digital media player of your choice. Downloadables: Deadbeat [...]
It's Monday, so you've got to kick things off with a nice rocker, so that's why I'm offering you up this sweet little number from The Coathangers . The group's running a split 73 with friends, Davila 666 , on a limited press from Suicide Squeeze , which will hit on April 17th. Just one listen to this and you'll have enough energy to get yourself through the day-banging drums and stuttering sharp edged guitars always do it for me. If you dig this, be sure to keep an [...]
Dávila 666 were, hands down, the most popular kids in our yearbook. Puerto Rico Indie did a pretty good rundown (and interview) of their accomplishments last year: rave reviews from every relevant publication out there, an oblique presence in the music festival circuit, a Taco Bell commercial, and a Jack White-produced live album. We would add the fact that they were also responsible for the year’s indie rock hit across the Iberoamerican region. The uncouth, six-member band was so irresistible that even Hollywood actresses like Scarlett Johansen and Kristen Stewart were spotted shoegazing at Davila’s urgent, lubricated vein. [...]

Le blog Infrasons n'est que la partie émergée de notre activité : nous officions surtout comme agence de notation musicale, en distribuant les bons et les mauvais points aux artistes et en évaluant chaque année leur crédibilité sur les marchés financiers. Apôtres des politiques de rigueur, nous devons lutter inlassablement contre les concepts albums prétentieux, les instrumentations indigestes, les solos interminables et toutes les boursouflures qui écorchent nos tympans. Lorsque l'on se voit investir d'une telle mission, la sévérité doit s'imposer, y compris vis-à-vis des élèves doués mais par trop insouciants. Ainsi, [...]

January 1942: 500 Wehrmacht soldiers found themselves surrounded by the Red Army on the Eastern Front. Suffering in temperatures of –22 Fahrenheit, marching through snowdrifts that at times reached waist high, soldiers began to lie down in the snow to die. Six hours into their escape they claimed they could go no further. Commanders made [...]
