Xarim Aresté is back freer, hotter and sharper than ever with Un idioma nou (RGB Suports, 2024). Crossing seas and mountains of popular music, from the bluest jota to the most Mediterranean blues, from tears to laughter and delivering poetry and clear-sightedness in abundance, he sings humanly to “beauty and pain, which are sometimes the same thing” in this new album, with a deep, primitive, thrillingly vital nudity.

However, Xarim Aresté leads the way with his dagger-like reflections on the nature of the human soul, always moving forward, linking circles with a guitar that sounds like a master and sounds at home. The album is recorded live with a Xarim Aresté who shines without gimmicks. Purity, freshness, inspiration and electricity are sprinkled throughout this masterpiece. Huge songs, great musicians and a stage beast unleashed, with more scars and wisdom than ever.
