Nieuws MEDEDELING !!
Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | CHILE-Import!
Aisles worked on Beyond Drama between January 2019
and October 2021. The album reflects the painful
moments the band went through during those years,
from the pandemic and political turmoil in Chile,
to deaths, splits, and a long internal crisis that
almost ended the band.
Beyond Drama is a document of a particularly
difficult time for Aisles, during which their love
for music kept them going. The album brings
closure to an excruciating chapter in their
history.
Contemporary progressive sounds influenced by
Porcupine Tree, Muse, Animals as Leaders and Pink
Floyd, so all in all heavier than their previous
album.
CD in trigipack.
The new album marks a turning point in Aisles‘
story. It is their final work in the current line-
up, due to the departure of Felipe Candia
(drummer), Rodrigo Sepúlveda (guitarist) and
Israel Gil (vocalist). Beyond Drama however is not
the end, just the beginning of a new chapter.
‘Game Over’ is the first glimpse of the LP. The
intricate melodies and sonic openness are the
hallmarks of Aisles – earnest melody and awe-
inspiring technicality. These dual facets of
Aisles‘ personality are turned up to 11 on Beyond
Drama, their most dazzling and tortured record
yet.
‘Game Over’ was influenced by the weight of
Animals As Leaders and by fusion and metal sounds,
with western, retro-futuristic touches and the
aesthetics of eighties video games. “It is part of
the alienation of the pandemic, with
hyperconnected people but with an intense
disconnection from the natural world and submerged
in video games 16 hours a day in a parallel
reality,” explains Juan Pablo Gaete, the group’s
keyboardist.
The track was recorded at Estudio del Sur,
produced by Angelo Marini and Germán Vergara,
mixed by Pepe Lastarria (Kuervos del Sur, Mawiza)
and mastered by American engineer Randy Merrill
(Muse, Paul McCartney, Beck, Liam Gallagher).
Furthermore, it is the fifth single from the
band’s new studio album, after the release of
‘Fast‘, ‘Disobedience‘, ‘Megalomania‘ and ‘Thanks
to Kafka‘.
‘Game Over’ takes on a new meaning with the
restructuring of the group – marked by a more
powerful and direct sound, uniting many of the
songs on the new album.
The band worked on Beyond Drama between January
2019 and October 2021. The album reflects the
painful moments that they went through during
those years, from the pandemic and political
turmoil in Chile, to deaths, splits, and a long
internal crisis that almost ended the band. Beyond
Drama is a photograph of a particularly difficult
time for Aisles, but their love for the beautiful
songs within kept them going.
In their time as a band Aisles have toured the
Americas, Europe, and performed with prog legends
Marillion, Focus, and Riverside.
In 2005, Aisles released their debut album,
entitled The Yearning, recognized for its elegant
and delicate melodic work, especially on epic
songs such as ‘The Wharf that Holds His Vessel’
and ‘Gray‘. In 2009, their second album, In Sudden
Walks, inspired by existential literature and by
theater, was nominated for Best Foreign Record at
the Prog Awards in Italy, and the group also
participated in the 11th version of the Progressif
Crescendo Rock Festival in France. Their third
record, 4:45 AM (2013), which looked into the
loneliness of the human being, received rave
reviews and was ranked among the best albums of
that year in numerous publications specialised in
progressive rock.
Their most recent studio album, Hawaii (2016), a
conceptual double album that narrates the life of
humanity in space after the destruction of the
Earth, was called a “masterpiece” and globally
acclaimed by such august titles as Prog, IO Pages,
and Chile’s premiere rock magazine, Rockaxis. The
success of the album allowed Aisles to tour in
Europe, the United States and Mexico.
In 2018, as a way of closing the cycle of Hawaii,
they released the EP Live from Estudio del Sur,
complemented by four videos recorded live that are
found on YouTube. After the departure of their
original vocalist, Sebastián Vergara, at the end
of that year, Aisles introduced in September 2020
their new singer, Israel Gil, with whom they
restarted their constant artistic evolution by
releasing ‘Smile of Tears’, a new version of the
song from the album In Sudden Walks. |
