Album title: La Lucha
Artist: La Vida Boheme
Genre: Alt-Rock/Indie Rock
Nationality: Venezulean
Release date: March 24
Position in Discography: Third
Fear Factor: Moderate
Familiar with this artist? No
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? No
Average RYM Score: 3.25
Starts off with some spoken word in Venezuelan (I assume) with some kind of nice ambient music behind it, but it's a short intro and then we have a poppy kind of uptempo number, then I really like “Lejos” (eyes?) which has a great hook and bops along like a good thing, very sort of arena rock but not really. This is great stuff: really happy, upbeat and catchy, makes you want to dance. Don;t worry: I'm not going to dance! This could turn out to be my favourite foreign-language album of this year. ****ing great stuff, not a bad track yet (9 of 13). Yeah, this was a massive surprise and a really excellent album. Arriba! (Or whatever they say in Caracas).

Check out more from this artist? Si senor
Check out more from this genre or subgenre? Aye

Expectation Index: 10
