Argentine Trio Tomates En Verano Dive Into a Ocean of Dreamy Shoegaze on “El Color del Mar”

Tomates En Verano, a Mar del Plata trio active for over two decades, released El color del mar, their fifth album. Produced by Graham Sutton of Bark Psychosis, the record blends shoegaze, gothic post-punk, and 1990s alternative rock through sudden dynamic shifts and distorted guitars that recall Pixies, Lush, and Slowdive. Vocalist Carina Monjeau’s cool delivery contrasts with the aggressive instrumentation, while bassist Pedro Moscuzza and drummer provide rhythmic definition. Guest appearances include piano from Francisco Raccanello Monjeau and bass from Luana Giobellina Monjeau on select tracks. The album’s title references both the sea and internal conflict, thematically reflected in the songs’ tonal instability and volume dynamics.
