28-CLE18230.2
A wonderful, noisy, poppy, avant-garde, punk, theatrical & arty band from Mexico who put on an unbelievably entertaining show. See them if you possibly can!
“Mexico's superb noise rock cabaret troop, Descartes A Kant, unleashes their 2017 album! It’s a concept album that questions all aspects of modern love through a series of dark tales of woe, limerence, break-up and grief. The band calls it an, "emotional porn album." The story’s narrative is represented by two characters that personify the face of a modern love relationship. It charts the couple’s mutable love as it transitions from enchantment, fascination and intensity to a state of indifference, disconnection, and dissolution throughout the ten-song cycle. Unlike other so called “break up” albums, any sense of resolution is left to the minds of the listeners.
The band's captivating live shows have earned them spots on major festivals. Surf, Noise, Punk, Swing and vocal intensity with carnival arrangements is only part of what one can find when listening to Descartes Kant, a band from Guadalajara, Jalisco, who formed in 2001.
Descartes a Kant mixes theatricality with experimentation, energy and dissonance with melodic sweetness, and that it has distinguished itself to achieve it's own style integrating diverse expressions of the scenic and visual art.
Their stage show – a chaotically-orchestrated combination of steam punk, classical ballet and grande guignol theatre – steals the senses and gives the audience the idea that anything can happen at any time. The band has also earned three awards at the Indie-O-Music Awards in Mexico: Best New Band in 2008 and Best Experimental Album and Best Live Act in 2013.”
