translated from Spanish: “Kisses on the back”, the new Of Indians appealing to the encounter in modern times

“Kisses on the Back” represents the last work of Indians, the band originally from Rosario that was installed as one of the most important in the national pop, after a legacy built by bands such as Babasonics or Miranda. The album, through a barrage of sensations, raises the concept of sensuality to think about approach. This was expressed by the musicians, who will present the material at the Vorterix Theatre on July 5, starting at 7 p.m. Tickets are already available, and can be obtained through AllAccess.” There is a show with rhythm, super energetic and attractive”, they advanced, in which he explained that they will review their classic songs along with their new releases that have already become a success. With mate and coffee in between, Filo.News spoke with Nicolas de Sanctis, Federico Pellegrini and Joaquín Vitola, who gave statements about their history and the message they sought to convey their album, compared to their previous works as “Indians” and ” Asphalt”.

Indians were born in 2009, from the “need” that each of them had to make music, from the connection they had with the instruments; in this way the name arose, in reference to the “ritual” of finding oneself from its own essence, what makes it happy: “The name refers to the original groups with nature, is to be connected with the mind in such an organic way. The music I think is something very ancestral, very original,” said Vitola.With “Kisses on the back”, their last album, recognized that they came to a more “mature” version, which condenses several ideas addressed in their previous works: “The previous album we did here in Buenos Aires, was very city, and in this we went to a house in a countryside, quiet, making ours, with a laguito down. There were a lot of songs there,” the singer said. 
“It’s a much sexier record we say, more romantic, in a deep sense of the word,” the musicians said.

With this album, the musicians admitted that they “found” their place, within a panorama dominated by the rise of new genres: “Everything that is trap, for example, has a violent cadence in the good sense, and we are a pop band that makes songs, we had to find our way in a world where there are other genres in vogue. We found our way of saying ours on the side of the approach, of the finesse.” “Kisses on the back”, precisely, is the result of this process of introspection and reunion with themselves, in which they raised what they wanted to show within this context. “We were clear about the concept, we decided to go into a decision and we weren’t shot as much as on previous albums. From the aura of the disc, from the climate it generates, it is much more sensual we say, more romantic, in a deep sense of the word. It seemed to us that what we had to grant or say at this moment in the world, on the side of imagination, propose lyrics that when you listen to it make you want to approach someone else,” De Sanctis said.

The current era crosses a millennial logic, which is embodied in the way of conceiving intimacy and time with others. Undoubtedly this panorama is already naturalized in society, although it is always a priority to rethink: how do we approach the other? How much time do we spend on life outside the cell phone? The new ness of Indians bursts into that context. This was indicated by the musicians, who explained that “Kisses on the back” appeals to the approach and encounter of the subjects within the era dominated by being “connected” or “disconnected”, and which manifests itself in songs such as “Rhythm and Perception”. “We wanted to answer the moment we were inhabiting was a bit through this feeling, this action of finding yourself, of generating intimacy, empathy, contact,” Pellegrini said, adding: “We feel like there’s a separation at one point, which is like a means paradoxical as hyperconnection; the extreme communication that we are living, also generates how people atomic, and that we turn inside, more individualistic, tells us more and more to relate face to face.” Then, he argued, “That the context to which we respond, we ourselves suffer from our own life, from when you feel alone, when you have to contact me by the machine but you can not get to generate the link, that was a little the axis of the disc.”
“The extreme communication that we are living also generates how people get atomicized,” the musicians said.

At that time, De Sanctis connected that intention with the reality that the country lives, on a political and cultural level: “We are not having a good time, people do not live happy,” he said, adding: “It has to do with this kind of melancholy or anguish even if we go up Happy photos.” This idea is embodied in his songs: “I feel like we are on the edge of the abyss that does not yet have a name”, expresses “I know”, which recently released an official video that has already been filled with visualizations.

Still, they are not dominated by fame or aspire to that: “Success I believe that it is in one to be honest, that the numbers are no more of that, almost in a playful way, you can take the reproductions as an anecdotal result but not a way to project.” The truth is that the performance in Vorterix will continue with a tour that will be performed by the musicians throughout the country, which already generated high expectations in all fans. After all, if you are to be concerned, you better connect with the other through music. In this note:
Kisses on the back
Indians
