Fusing rhythms and ritual songs from Maghreb, blended with beats, electronics and guitars.
Emotion in Maghreb is about Trance. The real one, without even thinking that there might be a concert or a recording. All that remains is a ritual. Adorcist. Therapeutic. Post-industrial.

Formed in 1982, the quintessential New York noise band Live Skull are back with two brand-new albums in two years: ‘Saturday Night Massacre’ saw the light of day late 2019, and December 11, 2020 saw the release of another classic: ‘Dangerous Visions’. Together with other New York bands Sonic Youth and Swans, Live Skull defined the term “noise rock”.
In his much-quoted review for The New York Times, Robert Palmer declared, “With each new record, New York’s Live Skull delivers a more concentrated brand of emotional intensity, a more ferociously disciplined sonic assault”.
Often brutal and yet strangely seductive, full of hooks and emotional intensity, and with a drone-dance-quality that reminds us of the early Velvet Underground.
After a gap of 30 years, Live Skull are back!
New album ‘Dangerous Visions’ out now (Bronson Recordings – import).

She is one of the top Latina guitar players of the world, an even better guitar player than Carlos Santana, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton or Jimi Hendrix, according to some! She usually performs her engaged, activist songs of rock, pop, latin and reggae as a power trio.
“Her songs marked by fusions of pop and rock with Caribbean rhythms and emphasize the use of her guitar, which has been described as reminescent of a young Santana.” (Alborde)
“Cecila Villar Eljuri is a triple treat: She’s an accomplished songwriter, a great vocalist and one hell of a guitar player.” (NPR Music, Alt-Latino).
