A doçura da pop une-se com a exuberância sofisticada de um punk soalheiro e melódico na banda canadiana, Corridor. Junior é o seu mais recente disco e está carregado de canções cantadas em francês que exalam toda a elegância e magia da língua francesa. Assinados pela reconhecida e popular editora Sub Pop, a banda evoca dias “preguiçosos” de verão, passeios de veraneio com uma centelha de introspecção e delicadeza ímpar.
Essa mistura de seriedade introspectiva, com um sentido de humor subtil, está também presente no artwork do disco, uma colagem que a banda define como “um ovo a dizer olá”.
Perguntámos a Corridor as suas escolhas para 5 livros, 5 discos, 5 filmes/séries e aqui ficam as respostas do baixista e vocalista, Dominic Berthiaume.

- TRANSLATION -
Pop's sweetness unites with the exuberance of a sunny and melodic kind of punk in the canadian band, Corridor. Junior is their latest release and it is filled with songs sung in french that evoke all the elegance and magic that is present on the sound of the french language. Signed by the well-known and popular label, Sub Pop, the band reminds us of "lazy" summer days, longs summer walks with a spark of introspection and delicacy that is quite unique.
That mix of serious introspection with a subtil sense of humor is also present in the record's artwork, a collage that the band defined as "an egg saying hello".
