I'm glad you liked it. There's an interesting generation of young indie bands singing in Spanish at the moment. And I still have to "explore" much of their music, especially that from the Americas.
I'm sure that
From Monarchy to Cryptocracy's video contains many references from 70's horror films (like those directed by Dario Argento, etc.) and perhaps some kind of esoteric symbolism. I'm not especially interested in that particular cinema genre, but I know there are several "cult movies" from that decade, at least to the genre lovers.
Klaus & Kinski (a funny name, BTW) has an attractive dreamy sound, indeed. I can hardly understand what they sing (you know, that's
shoegazing) but I like this band. Song
En la cama (which means "
In Bed" and, more of less, it says ♫ "
In bed / In your bed / That's the best / Beside you / That's what I like it / In bed..." ♫) perfectly expresses the feelings of an infinite and pleasant laziness (or, as Italians say,
dolce far niente), like in a Saturday morning, preferably together with a sweet sleepy lover.
I also like, among other songs,
Ley y moral ("
Law and Morals"): it has surrealistic and almost-inaudible lyrics, but it sounds good to me.
