Hoguera Post New Single “Muro”

hoguera

Here’s a fun fact. About 13 or 14 years ago, I tore my cornea. Sliced my eyeball on the edge of a cardboard box. This was before I stopped drinking, and I’d had some wine, but I’ll maintain forever I wasn’t drunk. Anyhow, was taking out the recycling, bent down to shoulder the storm door open, and rip, there it went. Worst pain I’ve ever felt, hands down. Ask me about it sometime.

During a period of several subsequent years of ongoing issues that eventually landed me in laser surgery, among the ineffective treatments I underwent was to put an ointment on my eyeball every night so that when my eyes inevitably dried out overnight, the tear would not reopen as it did more often than not anyway. Imagine waking up every morning and ripping your cornea again.

That ointment, it just so happens, was called Muro. I never bothered until seeing this single from Argentine heavy rockers Hoguera to look up a translation for the word. It means “wall.” That’s a thing I learned today.

The La Plata four-piece released their self-titled debut in April 2020 — which is to timing what that night putting out the cardboard was to my quality of life — and recorded this new track as a follow-up earlier this year. It is efficient in its construction and would seem to carry the theme of aftermath as one inevitably must in 2021. Trauma and whatnot.
