Les Sueques are Blanca (bass, vocals), Tuixén (guitar), Rachel (keyboards, other instruments) and Pau (drums, ex Tokyo Sex Destruction). Coming from Barcelona, they debuted in 2011 with “Les Sueques” EP on Repetidor Discs, a release that surprised everyone by their dose of dark and hypnotic music. After signing with El Genio Equivocado, their debut album, “Cremeu les Perles” appeared that March. Pop-punk reminiscent to groups like The Velvet Underground or The Fall, with a twisted, sardonic side, sharp guitar lines, heavy rhythms, 60s keyboards, and loads of fun and promise. Carefree & homemade riot-grrrls with a bunch of addictive tunes and a peculiar sense of humour (proceed with care when you read the lyrics). A work that exuded openness, light, sorrow and rage. Arty post-punk female. On the last months of 2014, “Ara és aquí”, an advance single of their second album, “Educació Física”, was published, with the LP arriving some weeks later. More powerful songs, distorted basslines, sharp guitars and sweet voices, offering 13 tunes that oscillate between post-punk, pop, krautrock and garage rock with a very personal idiosyncrasy and lyrics full of irony. A  more mature and stylistically diverse effort without losing their riot grrrl touch or their characteristic social commentary.
