Portuguese Sound Database: La La La Ressonance

Bio:

Originally known as The Astonishing Urbana Fall (TAUF), the band changed its name in 2005 but maintained all of its members. La la la ressonance rethink experimentalism and improvisation, which were pillars of TAUF’s creative personality, thus preserving its post-rock platform. Strangely enough, one project can be seen as the “negative” of the other. While TAUF revealed an experiential character in its long hypnotic and improvisational progressions, La la la ressonance add a dose of formalism, abstraction and irony, composed of laconic bits and pieces. TAUF come to an end after a ten-years career mostly dedicated to live performances - only 3 EP’s were released. La la la ressonance emerge on the scene with their first album - 'Palisade' (2006). In October 2009, the band releases the second album "Outdoor", supported by Honeysound and distributed by Compact Records. In April 2012, PAD releases their third album 'Faust'.
