For those of you who are unfamiliar with the work of Dave Norman, Dave is a recent acquaintance of mine and a newfound friend for whom I have the utmost respect. His blog, OpenMind/SaturatedBrain, is, in my opinion, the best music discovery blog that is still active or relevant today. His posts are informative, well-written, and contain download links to the very best music in the emo/hardcore/punk community. Basically, if you enjoy aggressive or emotional music, his site is the perfect resource. Meanwhile, Dave also keeps busy running Zegema Beach Records, a young but consistently excellent label that clearly values the bands it supports.
In an effort to simultaneously support a friend and the great bands he works with, I plan on having a series of posts promoting the work Dave does over at Zegema Beach; after all, it's more music for more people.
Today's post focuses on the new La Parade CD/12" LP, Voces Del Exilio. Hailing from Spain, La Parade plays a highly melodic form of post-hardcore with effectively sung vocals. The second track on the LP introduces a more raw and aggressive side to the band, with more distorted instrumentation and screamed vocals.
