20. AIAS "LA TRUITA"


here is a great track from spunky Barcelona indie-pop three-piece girl group Aias {Gaia, Laia et Miriam} called La Truita from their debut album "A la Piscina" (2010).

Aias proudly sing in their native Catalan {not Spanish}, their homegrown blend of twee pop is greatly inspired by the lo-fi lollipop-punk songs of Beat Happening, et the reverb-drenched harmonies of Phil Spector-produced 60s groups.

La Truita is a catchy carefree twee pop song with wonderful dreamy vocals full of reverb et sundazed breezy harmonies. this is endearingly simple, authentic lo-fi indie pop, with a real DIY home-made recording aesthetic, even the loud buzzing hum from mains power becomes a musical texture blending in with the fuzz-laden, groaning guitar, muffled, foggy snare, tinny hi-hat heavy drums, et hazy blissed out echoing vocals.

regardless of the 'foreign' language, Aias' breezy pop music is sooo catchy et delightful you can't help but tap your foot, hum along et make up the words to sing along with them! anyway, twee pop is universal it transcends language barriers!
