‘CARI\u00d1O’, written like that, in capital letters, is a title that says a lot with very little. Of the multiple readings that can be drawn, perhaps the most obvious is the one that entrusts everything to a question of trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is enough to listen to how Mar\u00eda Talaverano<\/strong>, Paola Rivero<\/strong> and Alicia Ros<\/strong> talk about their album to know how confident they are about the work they have done. Composed over the course of two years and released almost four years after their debut, the timing has been as particular as the circumstances surrounding it. But let there be no doubt that this is an album that is fully in tune with its time. And the fact is that, as the canon of new pop establishes, only two of the twelve tracks are longer than three minutes.<\/p>\n

A first glance at the tracklist might raise some eyebrows: a song about a Tamagotchi? In 2022? Paradoxical as it may seem, this is a reference of the most current relevance. Cari\u00f1o<\/strong>‘s songs, and we can appreciate it in details like this, appeal to a generation that is approaching its thirties and doesn’t quite know what to hold on to.<\/p>\n

Those who in their childhood cried inconsolably over the death of a digital pet are those who today have learned to channel their frustration through memes. However self-referential their themes may seem, they always have a strong universal component.\u00a0Been there, where that. The complicity generated by winks like these is one of the keys that explain the success of a proposal that is both sad and horny at the same time. A mood that is theirs and that of all their contemporaries.<\/p>\n

An eponymous album usually suggests a new beginning. In a way, ‘CARI\u00d1O’<\/strong> is. “llorando en la acera”<\/strong><\/em>, without going any further, symbolises the conquest of their own sound. It’s hard not to think of that version of C. Tangana<\/strong><\/a> with which they made themselves known in 2018. For anyone else, the journey from the limo to the pavement would be downhill. For them, however, it’s the other way around. At any one time they had just a couple of songs released, and now they are on the verge of releasing their second album and have become pop stars in their own right, not by imitation.<\/p>\n
