[Català-valencià. English below]

Mini-àlbum basat en el track "121 Xemeneies" dels We Are Not Brothers i Hugo Mas, que conta en clau poètica-electrònica els fets històrics de la Revolució del Petroli o Desfeta del Petroli, un aixecament revolucionari anarcosindicalista que succeí a la ciutat d'Alcoi el juliol de 1873 en el marc dels moviments cantonals durant la I República Espanyola. El nom prové del fet que les masses, enfurides, duien com a estendards grans torxes untades amb petroli i, durant uns dies, tota la ciutat feia olor de petroli.

Quatre tracks (més el track original) que narren des de l'arribada de la indústria a un Alcoi artesà i rural fins a la brutal i sanguinària repressió posterior per part de l'Estat Espanyol, que va deixar profundes seqüeles en la ciutat i greus retocessos en la lluita obrera espanyola.

L'edició física es publica en vinil gràcies al suport del segell valencià Industrial Complexx i conta amb un llibret redactat per Jordi Tormo i Santonja on podreu conèixer en major profunditat aquesta història que pretenem reivindicar.

[English]

Mini-album based on the track "121 Xemeneies" by We Are Not Brothers and Hugo Mas, which tells in a poetic-electronic key the historical events of the Oil Revolution, an anarcho-syndicalist revolutionary uprising that happened in the city of Alcoi in July 1873 in the framework of the cantonal movements during the Spanish I Republic. The name comes from the fact that the enraged masses carried large oil-smeared torches as banners, and for a few days the whole city smelled of oil.

Four tracks (plus the original one) that narrate from the arrival of the industry to an artisanal and rural Alcoi until the subsequent brutal and bloody repression by the Spanish State, which left deep consequences in the city and serious setbacks in the Spanish labor struggle.

The physical edition is available on vinyl thanks to the support of the Valencian label Industrial Complexx and also contains a booklet written by Jordi Tormo Santonja where you can learn more about this history that we intend to claim. 

El Petrolio (We Are Not Brothers i Hugo Mas - Abraxas remix)

Abraxas is a totally independent and self-managed project halfway between harsh electronic music, philosophical reflection and socio-political criticism and activism. Its main goal is to shake bodies and minds by spreading messages of individual and social self-criticism from the point of view of duality, extremes and contradictions, inherent to the human being and capitalist society.

A personal commitment to its creator Demian Abraxas (AKA We Are Not Brothers, PanDemian y Cançoner Industrial) in order to send highly impressive messages through music and a thunderous and caustic audiovisual live experience.

Broadly speaking, we could include Abraxas visceral sound within electronic music with echoes of different styles and sub-styles wrapped in a modern discourse and a current sound: techno, industrial and post-industrial music, EBM and its more modern side Techno Body Music, and finally, more noisy and experimental sounds, enveloped in a certain cyberpunk influence and a dense darkwave aura. All them mixed, creating the new tags #HarshElectronics, #EBMetal and #TechNoise with a unique sound that hits in the face of those listening to it, especially in live.

Dancing as an act of rebellion (Soil Records), his barf of introduction, is a double LP with remixes by other darkwave electronic artists such as Geistform, SMforma, Ober Dada, HBK1, SOJ or Melting Dogmas. A powerful weapon that includes a very special limited edition with an incendiary molotov pack.
