Y que mejor preambulo que Joy Divison- New Order para presentarles a quienes aun no los conocen a los suecos Cut City, una especie de abanderados para los fans del Post Punk junto a Editors e Interpol, comparados en su momento con Echo And The Bunnymen.
Esta banda catalogada como Indie Rock llego a traves de una especie de confusion o una inteligente maniobra en 2007 cuando Interpol anuncio el lanzamiento de Our Love To Admire y en los programas de descarga P2P aparecieron bajo ese titulo los suecos Cut City, desde ahi fue solo cuestion de escucharlos y comenzar adifundirlos, obviamente gracias a la calidad de sus canciones.
La banda no era nueva, se habia formado en 2002 aunque solo habian lanzado dos EPs hasta ese momento. Lamentablemente y a pesar de la cantidad de fans ganada su historia musical es muy corta con solo dos larga duracion, pero con una completa y oscura demostracion de Rock oscuro y Post Punk.
Hoy, ya disueltos solo queda esperar que nos depara su cantante Max J Hansson su cantante, quien junto a Anna Knutsson ha formado una nueva banda llamada Night Minutes con promesa de disco para este año, y que como adelanto les dejo un EP de tras canciones que han colgado en su bandcamp, espero que lo disfruten, saludos …
