Valencia’s La Plata arrive with the kind of sound that’s hard to pinpoint. Since breaking through around 2017 with the single “Atasco”, they’ve been tagged as both “post new wave” and “post punk”, but they’re such an interesting mix of genres: a post-everything band, living somewhere between rock and electronics, between the physical and the digital, always slightly out of reach.

The five-piece - María Gea (bass), Patricia Ferragud (synth), Miguel Carmona (drums), Salvador Frasquet (guitar) and Diego Escriche (guitar/voice) - have built a devoted following precisely because they don’t settle, album to album, EP to EP, constantly reshaping their own no-place. 

Their first album, Desorden (2018) put them on the map and their follow-up Accion Directa (2022) solidified their reputation. Their latest statement is Interzona (2025), their third album: a sharper, richer evolution that folds in what they’ve learned from other projects while keeping that restless La Plata core intact.
