''Dynamo'' is an album recorded by Argentine rock band Soda Stereo. It is their sixth full-length album and it was first released in Argentina by Sony Music Argentina in 1992. Considered one of the most core examples of a shoegazing album (and Hispanic shoegaze's high point by critics and fans alike), this is a very modern album that might have been accepted in anglophone music, and was quite visionary for those years. The album also maintained the drastic change of musical style previously experienced in their 1990 album, ''Canción Animal''. This album may also be considered one of the most mature and evolutionary deeds of the band. A highly experimental record, the album failed to reach its predecessor's popularity due to many factors, including lack of support from the band's label. It also alienated many fans, who had a hard time trying to cope with the unexpected shift in the band's musical style. Nonetheless, a few songs received a fair amount of radio airplay, including "Primavera 0" and "Luna Roja". The release of ''Dynamo'' prompted a nationwide tour, including a six night residency at Arena Obras Sanitarias, then known as the "Temple of Rock" by the local press. The band invited several up-and-coming bands from the alternative scene such as Babasónicos, Juana La Loca and Martes Menta to fill the support slots at those concerts, thus giving exposure to a scene that would become influential (and in some cases commercially successful) over the years. In this respect it can be argued that in spite of an apparent commercial failure (it went Double Platinum within a few weeks), Soda Stereo were never as influential on the development of new bands as in the ''Dynamo'' era. It also established the band as a sort of forefathers of the 90s alternative scene in Argentina, even when their role was mostly as propagandists of sorts.〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/r176493 Dynamo - Soda Stereo | AllMusic〕 ==Music== Dynamo showed a complete turnaround in the music of the band, towards an alternative style. It is primarily a shoegaze album, but is also founded on neo-psychedelia, dream pop, noise rock, psychedelic rock and electronic music. It is often compared to My Bloody Valentine's ''Loveless''. Some critics refer to ''Dynamo'' as a kind of "hispanic Loveless". While both are the same musical genre, ''Loveless'' was conceived in a culture that was experiencing a rise of alternative genres; ''Dynamo'' in turn, was released in the highly conservative Latin American music scene. Along ''Souvlaki'' by Slowdive and ''Nowhere'' by Ride are considered an essential part of the shoegaze movement. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dynamo (Soda Stereo album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
