Our Take

XABIER DIAZ & ADUFEIRAS DE SALITRE - The Silenced Cathedrals

Just when you thought you had heard it all, along comes Xabier Diaz & Adufeiras de Salitre with their new album, The Silenced Cathedrals. This Galician folk ensemble is here to shake up the music scene with their unique blend of traditional sounds and innovative twists.

From the moment the first note hits your eardrums, you know you're in for a wild ride. Diaz's haunting vocals transport you to another world, while the Adufeiras de Salitre's rhythmic beats keep you grounded in reality. The chemistry between the musicians is electric, creating a sonic landscape that is both mesmerising and exhilarating.

The album is a masterclass in storytelling, with each track taking you on a journey through Galician mythology and folklore. From the haunting ballad of "Marabilla" to the infectious energy of "Lume de Estrella", every song is a gem waiting to be discovered.

But what truly sets The Silenced Cathedrals apart is its fearlessness. Diaz & Adufeiras de Salitre aren't afraid to push boundaries and break conventions, resulting in a sound that is fresh, bold, and unapologetically authentic.

In a world inundated with cookie-cutter music, The Silenced Cathedrals is a breath of fresh air. It's quirky, it's fun, and it's undeniably brilliant. Diaz & Adufeiras de Salitre have proven once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. Don't be surprised if this album becomes your new obsession.
