Mishima at Scala

Music.  London, 25/04/2015

Having previously been a hit at The Great Escape and Liverpool Sound City, pop-rock band Mishima come back to the UK to present their latest album, 'L'ànsia que cura' with Rock Sin Subtítulos. Don't miss the chance to see this internationally renowed band at Scala on Saturday 25 April.  




Saying the name Mishima is speaking about not only the great Japanese writer but one of Barcelona’s most influential bands of the 21st Century. Despite the fact they started singing in English, the five-piece band fronted by David Carabén started using his mother tongue around 2005 and paved the way for the new wave of indie bands writing songs in Catalan language.

Loved by the press and with a fan base growing in geometrical progression, they released their seventh album in 2014 recorded at the mythical  Black Box Studios with the help of Peter Deimel (The Kills, The Last Shadow Puppets, Anna Calvi).  Hailed as their best, “L’ànsia que cura” (TRIS-Warner, 2014), captures the raw energy of their live set and a sophisticated range of influences including The Smiths and JG. Ballard, Randy Newman and David Lynch, Tindersticks and the chanson française. Think The National born and raised by the Mediterranean Sea.
