Triana-"Hijos del Agobio" (1977)

We are in 1977 and Spain is experiencing a generalized convulsion after the Franco regime, at that time the country was waiting impatiently for the new Spanish Constitution to come into force, that is why a certain impatience was generated on the side of the feelings of hope and liberation of the Spanish, In this context, Triana published his second album "Hijos del Agobio" with clear allegories towards those transcendental moments.
Musically, the Sevillian group reaffirmed the proposal they offered on their first album "El Patio" from a year earlier, symphonic progressive rock with flamenco reminiscences.
From the beginning the band never hid its intention to sound like the rising British progressive rock bands of the time (King Crimson, Genesis, Yes or Pink Floyd) but endowed it with the essence of Andalusian folk and flamenco music.
"Hijos del Agobio" contains memorable moments such as the overwhelming and hurtful song that gives the album its title, an encouraging message to the post-Franco regime, the poetic with a fandango base "Rumor", the complex "Sentimiento de Amor" and "Recuerdos de Triana" lead to the best songs on the album "Ya Esta Bien" and "Necesito", both with clear influences from the germ King Crimson.
"Hijos del Agobio" is a creepy album one of the masterpieces of Spanish rock and that marked an era in a whole country like Spain
