Destroyer "El Rito" from 'Five Spanish Songs' out December 2, 2013 on Dead Oceans (Europe)

Destroyer - El Rito

After years of writing and performing, Ava Luna has refined their doo-wop soul meets punk-as-fuck aesthetic into something bold and glaringly defiant in today's indie music landscape. Following the release of their critically lauded first proper full-length Ice Level, the band spent an intense 2-week period writing and recording in upstate New York. Unlike previous efforts that were meticulously mapped out, the songs that would become Electric Balloon were "…a family effort." according to frontman Carlos Hernandez. For the new album, former Columbia composition student Hernandez relinquished the reins a bit, opting for a more organic approach to writing the material for what would become Electric Balloon. As Hernandez explains, it was a "…birth of confidence. I grew closer to my bandmates, began to see the roles of a family playing out. Ethan cooks dinner for all of us, we make lewd jokes, and then 'after-dinner storytelling' takes the form of playing music."

In the wake of Ice Level, Ava Luna's sharp edges have melted away just enough, making it easier to connect with their no-wave grooves and soaring harmonies. Distilling everything from James Chance and ESG to contemporaries like Dirty Projectors and Of Montreal, Ava Luna have landed on an aggressively unique sound that still manages to be accessible. Hernandez goes on to explain "…the stories and moments here are clearer, as in a conversation. The moment appears, you grab it with your hands, screw the lid on the mason jar. There was no tweaking, no second-guessing. Julian's mantra for the process: 'First thought best thought.'….And for my part, I sing my best about encounters, friendships, some moments beautiful and others painful. A bike shop manager in New Orleans, a derelict porch on Brighton Beach, a yellow sweater in a kitchen in the Catskills, a water duct in the New Mexico desert…"

Fun Adults - 'Peek And Punch'

Alien
There's a demon in my mind
whispering through my ear
total nothingness inside
I wanna torture you my dear
I've got too many problems
but I don't care
I don't have a job
but I don't care
I don't have many friends
but I don't care
and it's just my music
that all i have

but my split personality is waking up inside
I don't know what to do cause I'm out of my mind


sitting in my room all alone
thinking about you my world's yellow
emotions taking colours trying to speak
thinking about you I can't even breathe
I don't get many kisses
but I don't care
and my mind's shattered in pieces
but I don't care

but my split personality is waking up inside
I don't know what to do cause I'm out of my mind

people waiting for me to change
but I just want to stay same
I don't understand this world
and I think I'm afraid

day and night thinking the same 
there's no emotion that I can contain
it's like a lion I'm trying to tame
but in the end I will lose this game

I feel like I'm alien
for everyone and every place
half human half alien
there's no place where I belong



let's steal a car
and drive towards nothingness
I'm seeing way too far
our future can be limitless

have you ever smelled a colour
it's the strangest feeling in the world
it's like emotion undercover
when you try to change the world
Alien was written by me 1 year ago. I recorded it at my home studio, still couldn't catch it like I wanted to but i tried.
