Renowned for "Al Otro Lado Del Rio," his Academy Award-winning song featured in THE MOTORCYCLE DIARIES, Uruguayan singer-songwriter Jorge Drexler presents a compelling set of thoughtful Latin pop with 12 SEGUNDOS DE OSCURIDAD. Staying largely within an acoustic palette, Drexler shines on the dreamy title track and a spare cover of Radiohead's "High and Dry" (the album's only English-language number), songs that showcase the performer's gentle, amiable vocals and delicate guitar playing.
Tracklist
Radiohead
Radiohead burst onto the Britpop scene in the early 1990s with a clamorous, post-U2 take on guitar rock, buoyed by the hit "Creep." They subsequently developed their songwriting and production skills on THE BENDS and achieved iconic status with their breakthrough album OK COMPUTER, making art-rock cool again in the process. The mercurial band's long-awaited follow-up three years later was a sharp left turn full of ambient electronics and Can-like sonic deconstruction, and they've continued the trend with subsequent albums and solo projects. The connecting thread through all the band's phases has been Thom Yorke's intense vocal frenzy.
