About this album

  • Updated: 29/07/2008

«As your mind gently awakes to the sound of the morning buzzer, as you stretch your arms and clear your throat, a newborn day enters through the cracks of the window, paving the way for our conscious premonition of the future that is about to happen. This is the panorama for any ordinary day.


This album opens with a soft voice whispering a wake-up call in your ear, but it quickly turns into a disturbing landscape, obliging you to open your eyes and acknowledge the fact that there is a life to carry through another day. The monotonous sound of routine reappears as you leave home, balancing through the streets and roads in a desperate hurry to get to nothing dissimilar to yesterday.


It is life in all its extent that is expressed in the mindtripping sounds of Landfill’s first recording. The tone is definitely a post-rock one, with clear Barrett-esque influences, space-rock with its feet on the ground, contradictions and moodswinging atmospheres that allure you to reflection or abstraction, love and hate or everything else you might feel or not.
Cowboys and factory workers dancing in the streets of a long-gone country, as Iceland meets South America and China – this is the soundtrack to any kind of living person in its most absurd and realistic form. The odyssey is not a pretentious one, it leads you only to everything you know, as your knowledge is always limited to everything you conceive as real or imaginary, and the definition of both – and dream...


With old-age keyboards floating on the back of our minds, the voices mumble unintelligible words as the guitars grow into the foreseeable chaos of the end of any given day. There is no illusion to follow, this is a dream as cruel as reality, with roads leading to wrong places, with obstacles around every single bend, and the wind whistling in every direction, assuring you that there is no right path to follow.
Banda Sonora Para Um Dia Normal (Soundtrack to an Ordinary Day) and Vida Constante (Constant Life) – a voyage into the subconscious states of the mind, into happiness and melancholy, rage and reason.


Mais Um Dia Igual (Another Similar Day) is a review of the day that is about to end, with its ups and downs, in and outs, or the lack of any of them.
As pragmatic and absurd as life can be, the journey is granted, whether you like it or not, for life is yours to decide, but only in small amounts.»
- António Correia

oui c'est ça cet album est un voyage à travers nos ressentis, nos émotions, nos sentiments... il me fait penser à de tres bonnes musiques experimentales des années 70. je ne pense pas que ce soit un album qu'on écoute d'une oreille il faut plutôt lui concacré du temps mais quel temps! il nous fait voyager en nous même. BRAVO et MERCI

Je dois bien reconnaître qu'avec les musiques que j'écoute, nous sommes ici loin de mes "habitudes". Néanmoins, pour créer une ambiance de soirée, se détendre, c'est assez efficace ! A écouter !

Naprawdę dobry album. Po przesłuchaniu ciężko się oprzeć, by nie odsłuchać tego raz jeszcze - odkrywanie go i poznawanie jest prawdziwą przyjemnością :) Utwór "Mais Um Dia Igual" od razu skojarzył mi się z pewną balladą na pierwszym albumie B.R.M.C. Dwa pozostałe utworu to już zupełnie inny klimat. Naprawdę warto dać się ponieść.

Although this kind of music isn't exactly my cup of tea, this album is interesting and worth dowloading. Sound quality is high. In few moments the album sounds like SBB in their greatest era in the middle of 70's, but it doesn't matter at all :-)

Hard para criticar um bom álbum do ambiente, podemos apoiar o autor com algumas palavras. Aqui é como um sonho onde eu voaram através do único poder da mente, existem riscos para pendurar no cabo eléctrico ou os topos das árvores, uma montanha passe pode ser duro, mas essa sensação de voar por sua própria vontade como isso, um sonho, é incomparável. Aqui, eu arquivo para áreas mais ao sul, I love me aproximar mais da terra, para ver que as pessoas fazem e pergunto-me por vezes, aqui e ali. Bravo para esta boa viagem! Melki
