Después de hacernos el amor

The story behind

El Cuarteto de Nos recorded Después de hacernos el amor in 1994, during the sessions for Otra Navidad en las trincheras. The song, which lasts less than three minutes, is a clear example of how the band blended rock with lyrics that play with irony and everyday harshness. It is not a typical romantic ballad: it sounds like a half-hearted confession, with a rhythm that sways between catchiness and discomfort, as if intimacy had turned into a bad joke. The bass and drums lay down a simple but effective foundation, almost like a whisper that becomes insistent, while the singer’s voice moves forward with that mix of sarcasm and sincerity that defines the album.
