Miami rock outfit analog has delivered a second single “Tame” from their upcoming full-length album Portable People. The track is a headbanging portrait of unconstrained desire, the resulting limbo of driving guitars and catchy hooks leaving the listener in a whirlwind of moreish rock vibes. Along with the track’s release, the band also deliver its accompanying music video. Directed and edited by Andrés Monsalve, the video tells the story of a steamy high stakes affair, the betrayal soon turning deadly when uncovered. The intensity of the visuals perfectly matches the anticipation building tune, boiling over at the crescendo of the chorus.
The 4 piece rock band, refuses to be tied down to any one type of rock sub-genre. Formed in 2012, the band draws heavily from different styles, borrowing sounds from all iterations of rock, garnished with a hint of blues, indie, and neo-psychedelia. The lineup is now composed by Albae Camino (lead vocals/guitar), Esteban Gomez (lead guitar/ambient vocals), Juan Manuel Gonzalez (bass) and Tekilla (drums). Analog is a regular fixture in the Miami and South Florida rock scene, at the forefront of its resurgence in popularity.
“We as humans tend to take everything for granted. Especially when it’s right under our nose. Once it’s gone, We suddenly ache for it. We always want what we can’t have.” – Albae
The Portable People LP, due out on July 5th, will be the band’s first full-scale release since their debut EP Extended Pleasure, back in 2014. This has created much anticipation since the band plays regularly in South Florida. Analog blends different styles of rock to attain something unique; while one can hear influences of ’60s, ’70s, ’80s and ’90s rock in their music, a large part of the band’s influence comes from the city of Miami itself, it’s culture, architecture, and lifestyle affecting the music in magical ways. This mix of textures, sounds, and styles makes for groovy rhythms, catchy lyrics, and unforgettable melodies. Portable People will be available on July 5th, 2019.
