A band as important to the history of the scene in the Murcia region as it is to the current national music scene
We follow a journey through fifteen great songs that demonstrate the weight of the artistic work of Second, a band as important in the history of the scene in the Murcia region as it is in the current national music scene.
At the end of its debut, Second delivered a brilliant ending full of thrills and electricity. They were their beginnings, yes, but here many of the virtues that make the band great were already intuitive.
The first progress of his next work shows the most representative signs of Second’s identity and hooks from the first listen. Top quality pop/rock.
There are themes that mark the trajectory of those responsible until they become hymns attached to the memory of different generations. And that’s ‘Exquisite Corner’ for Second. A perfect song.
From the first notes, ‘Lo unico’ takes on seductive melodic textures to immerse you in its fascinating universe. One of the band’s great hidden gems.
It was undeniable whiplash in 2005 and it still is. Listen to her without getting up and giving everything? Impossible.
Psychedelics wrapped in glowing power pop, a great vocal performance and immaculate harmonies. You never tire of rediscovering ‘Your innocence intact’.
Led by an irresistible chorus, “Too Much Dreamers” could act as a powerful example of Second’s ability to create the dream single. Pure addiction.
A car driving in the sunset epilogue. Curves that open and close. Reflections to the rhythm of the open windows. ‘Infinite Theatre’ is a song that you know will always accompany you.
You could try to do an exhaustive analysis of why ‘Accident’ works, but everything, really everything, is in its impressive riff. Vertigo, sweat and rock in steamroller format.
Its groundbreaking airs, beautiful melody and, of course, that cheerful harmonica, justify the presence of ‘Conocerte’ as one of the best of Second.
The excellent ‘Bite me’ has earned its undisputed status within Second’s repertoire. A fundamental piece for the band and one of the most anticipated moments of their concerts. That’s right.
From his playful vocal performance to his unhinged guitars, ‘Las snakes’ emerges as a veritable musical time bomb that is a joy to accompany every outburst.
‘The contour of your fears’ delivers a version of Second that we haven’t heard before and makes you feel at home at the same time. One of his big themes from now on.
Space funk, immersive synths and banjos dancing on a neon porch. ‘La barrier sensorial’ is a song so full of surprises and brilliant melodic solutions that there is no choice but to fall at his feet.
Among the many and varied virtues that ‘Rings and Roots’ cherished, the closing with ‘The Luck of Your Skin’ stood out with special force, a wonderful combination of epic and sensibility.
