La etapa de ver a tu grupo en directo recomiendo no saltársela. Gracias a @heavenlyindie y al @madridpopfest por dejar tocar a la enésima encarnación de El Palacio de Linares.
¿Os habéis enterado de esto? Vuelve El Palacio (con batería especial para la ocasión, que el original está lesionado) (el nuevo es mejor) abriendo para @heavenlyindie . El 8 de mayo, en @salagalileo , organizado por @madridpopfest . Entradas en @dice_spain .
Happy 1st birthday to our album 'Primary Colours" 🎉🥳
It was released on 7th February 2025 with our great friends @bobo_integral and @soundasleeprecords featuring phenomenal artwork from @lennon__art
Huge thanks if you listened to, bought, gave airplay to, reviewed the album 🙏
We're proud of this one!
CDs, and last copies of the blue or black vinyl and cassette via link in bio. Available to stream everywhere 👌
'I Don't Mind' was written in early 1998 while I was still at high school. We recorded a fuzzy version of it back then but it mostly was forgotten about until I was looking for songs to resurrect for the 2nd @nervousnessboys record, 'Songs from Another Life' in 2020 with my musical partner, Gonzalo Marcos. Maybe the shortest and simplest song I ever did, it's great it found a place and, as far as I know, is the most streamed of my songs ever. Anyway, during our recent shows we decided to try it out and it was nice to finally play it with @iang78 again, decades later! Blink and you'll miss it 🤣
If i can work it out, I might upload a clip of the original demo in the comments later - it's currently on minidisc only. We were quite hip in the '90s actually 👌
PS - This video is from @la_lata_de_bombillas in Zaragoza in October, a wonderful place 😀
One of our favourite new songs to play from 'Primary Colours' been 'Snowflakes', so we'll sign off from this year with a live compilation video of it from various venues in Scotland, Spain, England, Sweden, Germany and France.
Big thanks if you came out to see us somewhere, it's been a lot of fun. 👌
Wherever you are, have an amazing Hogmanay and best wishes for 2026 from the three of us at Dropkick HQ.
