THE LIMIÑANAS TO RELEASE COSTA BLANCA NOVEMBER 19TH ON TROUBLE IN MIND
STREAM/SHARE THE LIMIÑANAS' "MY BLACK SABBATH"
The Limiñanas, the brainchild of French duo Lio and Marie Limiñana, are back on Trouble In Mind with their third album, Costa Blanca, out November 19th! Once again, recorded at their home in the south of France by Lio himself, Costa Blanca pushes the envelope of their signature Franc-o-phonic sound -- the
coloeur café cool of Gainsbourg, the hypnotic drone of VU-era Cale, and
the spiky fuzz of Davie Allan. This time around the band incorporate
avant-classical and experimental sonic elements, lacing the tunes with
a dramatic flair of French New Wave soundtracks and the percussive
accents found in Morricone's work in Il Gruppo. Melodic "jump-cuts,"
sonic echoes of previous tunes and future melodies, appear and
disappear throughout the course of this album (and The Limiñanas'
entire oeuvre). Thematically, Costa Blanca is
an insular record, with subjects that reference Lio's youth growing up
in Spain in the 1970's near the Mediterranean Sea and nostalgic odes to
the music, films, girls, books and cars that shaped his world.

"Marie and Lio Limiñana are making something new with the echoes
of France's artistic past. . . Marie's airy vocals add that retro
element to the modern soundscape, which even features glimmers of
Mediterranean melodies. The driving bassline also has a throwback vibe,
but its place within the production and combination with the rest of
the instrumentation gives it a twenty-first-century flavor. The
Limiñanas know how to make established styles sound new again." - Ad Hoc
