Biznaga

About

Biznaga isn't just playing punk; they're dissecting and weaponizing it. Hailing from Madrid, the quartet blasts a frenetic energy through their veins, channeling the raw power of 77 punk, the sardonic wit of new wave, and the angularity of post-punk. Their sound is a tightly wound coil of blistering guitars, driving basslines, and guttural vocals, delivered with the urgency of a manifesto. Since their formation in the early 2010s, Biznaga has carved a distinct path, rejecting easy categorization. Their breakthrough album, "Centro Dramático Nacional" (2014), served as a potent introduction, solidifying their reputation for scathing social commentary and politically charged lyrics. Albums like "Norte" (2017) and "Gran Pantalla" (2020) further sharpened their sonic palette and lyrical focus, tackling themes of societal decay, disillusionment, and the anxieties of modern life. Biznaga's refusal to compromise their artistic vision has solidified their status as a vital voice in the Spanish underground scene. Their music resonates with a generation grappling with uncertainty, offering a visceral soundtrack to disillusionment while maintaining a defiant, rebellious spirit.
