Zitarrosa en el cielo

The story behind

Zitarrosa en el cielo begins with a tune that doesn’t sound like a conventional rock song. The bass traces a melodic line that repeats like an echo, while the drums set a rhythm that is neither fast nor slow, but just the right one for El Cuarteto de Nos’ voice to move between narrative and irony. It’s not a track that hits with distorted guitars or sticky choruses; instead, it plays with ambiguity, as if telling a story that never quite comes to a close. The lyrics, short and direct, rely on that clean sound with a touch of rawness, as if the album had been recorded in a space where time stretches a little.
