About Declan Berdella
English// Guitar player from the critically acclaimed Post-Metal Band Expedicion a las Estrellas. Declan studied guitar and piano at a very young age, and started his independent music career as part of bands like Larva, Zelda, Dipsoma and currently EALE. After their EP "72" released in 2008 and their debut album "27" edited in 2009, the band gained a lot of attention and excelent reviews from many countries such as Spain, Russia, United States, Italy their native Mexico and more, which helped them build a solid fanbase. Now as a solo artist, but also collaborating with some other musicians, his debut album "INDIGO", recorded at Atrapa Sueños Records and distributed through PTD Records the winter of 2012, composed by 14 tracks that oscilate from Post Rock and Post Metal to Lo-Fi industrial tunes. First Two singles "Heretic Waltz" and "Jose Saenz" are promoted in two different videos directed by visual artist Yamille Marmont. The album explores very personal themes and universal topics as well, such as Atheism, Psychogenealogy, love, uncounsciosness, solitude, etc. Quoting different authors like Ayn Rand, Jodorowsky, Richard Dawkins, Pat Condell and even serial killers among some others. With an eclecticism that seems to favor the album, the material is divided in 3 different chapters, I:destroying the delusional (in all of us), II:The genealogical monster manifests in dreams. III:Rise of indigo and dissertations on love. This is a truly introspective work but certainly and somehow easy to listen.
