De todos es sabido como Lagartija Nick, lejos de lo convencional en un grupo de rock, siempre han gustado de experimentar en territorios desconocidos hacia lo insospechado y más allá del punto en el que se encuentren en ese momento. Si al trabajar con el flamenco crearon esa obra de referencia que es “Omega” (CBS-Sony, 95), tampoco dejaron de hacerlo con el rock industrioso que “Val del Omar” propone, pues, en verdad, este no deja de ser la respuesta granadina a las sonoridades avanzadas de Ministry o NIN que a mediados de los noventa, fechas de la edición de este disco (y a continuación de su colaboración con Morente), se encontraban en pleno esplendor. Para ello, tomaron en consideración elevar a icono de esa teórica modernidad mecanicista a un, por entonces, desconocido cineasta y poeta nacido a principios de siglo, para, como punto de partida conceptual, regalarnos estos catorce temas de rock ruidoso, rabioso y maquinal, del que sin duda hay que destacar su impresionante sonido. Una reedición bien merecida.

  1. The ongoing coinflct between the working class and the upper and middle classes is the most interesting. Both world wars were class wars at their roots. The first world war resulted in the revolution in Russia and formation of the USSR. The second world war was at its root a clash between the working class and the German middle class. The Korean war was a war over the class system and revolution. All the wars of independence in Africa and Indochina were at root wars of the working people to overthrow imperialist, upper-class domination.The Gulf War was fought to protect upper-class oil holdings from being captured by a socialist state. It's easy for middle class people to ignore class warfare because it's been exported beyond their borders. When you buy shoes that someone was paid 10 cents to make, there's not gonna be agitation in some US city sweatshop, because the shoes were made in China, or Indonesia, or some other place where someone you can ignore can do the dirty work. That's the essence of imperialism, whether it involves government or not, and it's why most class wars of the last 50 years were third-world uprisings.Currently the upper and middle classes number somewhere under 2 billion total people. The other 6 billion or so people in the world are either working class or unemployed and destitute. After another year or so of the global recession, there is going to be an explosion of uprisings that will surprise you. At the root will be class warfare.
