Mueran Humanos - Reemplazante (2024) [Hi-Res]

“Now I am quietly waiting for the catastrophe of my personality to seem beautiful again,” wrote New York poet Frank O’Hara in 1957 in dedication to Russian-Soviet poet Vladimir Mayakovsky. On “Desastre Personal,” the opening track of Reemplazante, Argentine-born, Berlin-based duo Mueran Humanos touches on that feeling—the calamity of the self, and how it might be tied to art, love, and creation. “Watch out and welcome to my personal disaster,” howls vocalist Carmen Burguess, assuming the role of both the actress and the tormentor with the same ease she’s been displaying since the band started, back in 2007. Their debut single predicted their musical path by way of transfiguration. Since that release, the band has continued to employ the jagged, brooding basslines brought forth by Tomás Nochteff, vocals drenched in reverb and echo and harsh, industrial drum beats—Mueran Humanos creates their metallic sound, where songs flow between redemption and horror. “Innocent and sad I look at you from above, you don’t allow yourself to hold my joy,” the duo sings together in the album’s title track. In Reemplazante, Mueran Humanos remains fearless and beautifully enmeshed—for better or worse.
