The Last Internationale, Hard Club, Porto, 04/12/2021.

Screams, Revolution & Rock’n’Roll

 It was past 10:25pm when a not fully filled Sala 1 of Hard Club, but with a well designed human frame received The Last Internationale.

It all started with a vehement revolutionary preamble foreshadowing what was to come. And if thought right better done, because from then on it was non-stop contagious energy quite well watered with alternative rock'n'roll, with hints of folk rock, indie and blues. The original band core is of far-fetched quality and master-line sensibility. Delila Paz sings like a rebel, rebel angel, impregnated with sensuality and haughtiness and comfortably sailing with an excellent voice that never wavers, nor takes refuge in calmer havens. She is always up there with alternating timbres in a vocal range that often reminiscent of Siouxie Sioux heydays. Edgey Pires, of Portuguese descent, plays the guitar as if he was constantly receiving electric shocks. The guitar screams like hell, especially the Telecaster, in alternative blues scales and frantic guitar riffs, very well found and pertinent. Hendrix would be there until the end. He never tires of cheering up the audience that responds to the request. The drums ride from behind, strong, striking and above all powerful. Hard Times, Wated Man, Life, Liberty and Pursuit the Indian Blood were not missing from the men and the concert flew well among a well-put together setlist.

If I had to make an analogy with something, I would say, by way of comparison with motorcycles that The Last Internationale are a very cute, retro Café Racer, but at the same time very now and trendy. From the 70s to the present rock history is full of tales of an announced death. However, as the people say, the more you talk about it, the more life you give it and this concert was a good example of that. Long Live Rock’n’Roll!

Gritos, Revolution & Rock’n’Roll

Já passava das 22.15h quando a sala 1 do Hard Club, não cheia, mas bem composta de moldura humana recebeu os The last Internationale.

Tudo começou com um preâmbulo revolucionário veemente a prenunciar o que estava para vir. E se bem o pensaram, melhor o fizeram, porque a partir dai foi um non stop de energia contagiante muito bem regada a rock’n’roll alternativo, com laivos de folk rock, indie e blues. O núcleo original da banda é de qualidade rebuscada e com sensatez de linha mestra. Delila Paz canta como uma rebel, rebel angel, impregnada de sensualidade e altivez e navega confortável com uma excelente voz que nunca vacila, nem se refugia em portos de abrigo mais calmos. Está sempre lá no alto com timbres alternados numa amplitude vocal a lembrar muitas vezes Siouxie Sioux dos tempos áureos. Edgey Pires, de ascendência lusitana, toca guitarra como se estivesse o tempo todo a levar choques elétricos. A guitarra grita que se farta, principalmente a Telecaster, em escalas de blues alternativo e riffs de guitarra frenéticos, muito bem esgalhados e pertinentes. Hendrix ficaria ali até ao fim. Não se cansa nunca de puxar pela sala, que correspondeu ao pedido. A bateria cavalga por trás, forte, marcante e acima de tudo, possante. Hard Times, Wated Man, Life, Liberty and Pursuit the Indian Blood não faltaram na ementa e o concerto fluiu bem entre um set-line bem conseguido.

Se tivesse de fazer uma analogia com alguma coisa, diria, a título comparativo com motos, que The Last Internationale é uma Café Racer muito bonitinha, retro, mas ao mesmo tempo muito atual e na moda. A história do rock está recheada de crónicas de uma morte anunciada, desde os 70’s até aos dias de hoje. Mas como diz o povo, quanto mais se fala disso, mais vida lhe dás e este concerto foi um bom exemplo disso. Long Live Rock’n’Roll!
