Hey!
Hace varios meses que no escribíamos algo por estos lares...A pesar de que hemos estado algo desaparecidos últimamente, no hemos dejado de trabajar y muchas cosas han sucedido con la banda: nuevas grabaciones, nuevas alineaciónes, nuevos trabajos, nuevas vidas...
Tenemos un nuevo disco terminado. Lo fuimos a grabar una vez más a Canadá con nuestro productor y buen amigo Dave Newfeld. Esta vez Dave montó su nuevo estudio en una iglesia templaria del siglo XIX, rodeada de árbloes en la provincia de Ontario. Algo tienen los canadienses con las iglesias...
El nuevo disco se titula TRE3S y sale el 18 de agosto en México con el sello Arts&Crafts MX. Estamos muy emocionados de poderlo compartir con ustedes. Nos comen las ansias...Por eso, a partir de este lunes 12 de julio estaremos regalando un par de canciones del disco. Igual y así podemos además ayudarles a sortear la depresión que supone el fin del mundial...jeje.
Junto con la salida del disco tendremos una serie de fechas por México (se confirman pronto), incluído el festival Corona Capital, y una gira por los Estados Unidos en septiembre abriéndole a Built to Spill y Ra Ra Riot. Para estos shows se estará incorporando a la batería nuestro buen amigo Zöell Farrugia (también baterista de las bandas tijanenses Ambiente y Nortec Panóptica Orchestra). Les estaremos avisando de todas las fechas aquí...
Por ahora, les dejamos el tracklist del nuevo disco:
Chikita Violenta - TRE3S
1. Roni
2. All I Need's A Little More
3. Tired
4. Holiday
5. The Pause
6. ATPG
7. The Monster (Was Last Seen Approaching the Power Plant)

9. España
10. Supercycle
11. My Connection
Esperemos disfruten el nuevo material, nos estaremos viendo muy pronto...
Salud!

Hey!
It's been a while since we last wrote something around here. Even though it looks like we disappeared for a while, we haven't stopped working and many things have happened with the band: new material, new line-up, new jobs, new wives, new lives...
We have a new album in our hands. Once again we recorded it with producer and good friend David Newfeld. Dave set up an incredible new studio inside a nineteenth century church in the province of Ontario, surrounded by trees. There's something about Canadians and churches...
The new album is titled TRE3S, and will be out in Mexico on August 18th (on our new label Arts&Crafts Mexico). We're very excited about all these new developments, and can't wait to release the album...In the meantime we'll be giving away two tracks from the album this coming Monday, July the 12th. Maybe they'll even help diminish the post-World Cup depression...¿?¡!
Along with the album release, we'll be playing some new dates in Mexico (TBC), including the Corona Capital festival (Pixies, Interpol, Metric, etc) and then in the USA, supporting the Built to Spill and Ra Ra Riot tours in September. Our good friend, drummer Zöell Farrugia (who also plays in Tijuana bands Ambiente and Nortec Panoptica Orchestra), will be joining the band for these shows. We'll be posting all the new dates here...
In the meantime, here's the new album tracklist:
Chikita Violenta - TRE3S
1. Roni

Chikita Violenta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A prisoner outside the lines
You didn't mislead them
They've already made their minds
As you swift
Through the sounds of bitter
You be good
Critical phrases
Gathering around the smiles
Why didn't you said so?
You've already loved the last
As you spit
At the sounds of bitter
You become to be something
I wish I could bleed out
All of my ineradicably mellow
But I can't
Calculate what you'ld do
Who's gonna play now?
Ask me to lay 'round?
There's no reason to wait any longer
I ain't getting any colder
Who's gonna play now?
Ask me to lay 'round?
I came
I give
I my eyes for you
The lyrics to Chikita Violenta's song España convey a sense of frustration and isolation as the singer feels like an outsider. The first verse talks about how the character is always "A prisoner outside of the lines" which suggests a sense of feeling trapped or constrained by something but not being able to quite put their finger on what that something is. The singer then goes on to mention that they haven't misled anyone but others have already made up their minds about them.
As the character moves through the world, they encounter "bitter sounds" which they spit at, revealing a sense of resistance and anger. Despite this, they still wish they could "bleed out" their feelings of melancholy, but also feel unable to predict how others would react to them doing so.
The chorus centers around the question of "Who's gonna play now?" which suggests a desire to connect with others and be seen. In the final verse, the singer is offering themselves up to someone, telling them that they came, they give, and they offer their eyes for them.
Overall, the lyrics of España paint a picture of someone who wants to connect with others but feels like an outsider and is unsure of how to do so. They are grappling with their emotions and the reactions of others, but ultimately still hold out hope for a connection.

I wish I could bleed out
All of my ineradicably mellow

Who's gonna play now?
Ask me to lay 'round?
There's no reason to wait any longer

Who will take the lead now? Should I sit back and wait? There's no reason to waste time, I'm not getting any younger.
I came
I give
I my eyes for you
I am here for you, I am devoted to you, I will sacrifice whatever it takes to help you.
