Our Take

Ah, Meridian Brothers, the Colombian band that never fails to surprise and delight with their unique blend of tropical psychedelia and experimental sounds. Their latest album, Desesperanza, is no exception. From the opening track, "De Mi Caballo, Como Su Carne," it's clear that the Meridian Brothers are not afraid to push the boundaries of genre and convention. The track begins with a cacophony of horns and percussion that slowly morphs into a catchy, danceable groove. It's the perfect introduction to the eclectic journey that is Desesperanza. Throughout the album, the band effortlessly combines elements of cumbia, salsa, and even a touch of acid jazz to create a sound that is truly their own. Tracks like "Guaracha U.F.O" and "Los Golpeadores de la Cumbia" showcase the band's versatility and ability to seamlessly blend disparate genres into a cohesive whole. But what really sets Desesperanza apart is the band's irreverent sense of humour and playfulness. The lyrics are filled with surreal imagery and twisted wordplay that will leave you scratching your head one moment and laughing out loud the next. In conclusion, Meridian Brothers' Desesperanza is a triumph of genre-bending creativity and boundary-pushing experimentation. If you're looking for an album that will challenge your preconceptions of what music can be, look no further than this gem from Colombia's finest musical export.
