HER ONLY PRESENCE are a Spanish trio from Barcelona. Clearly influenced by mid-90's emo bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Mineral and Penfold.
"you're Never Back" is the sweetest album that i've been listen to this year so far, it beats Empire! Empire! new EP. This album is so dreamy, easy to listen to, it's soft. The music is similar to Empire! Empire!, but HOP is got something different that you will never know before you listen to them. Lead vocalist Luis Cifre got a high and soft voice, it's like Mew or Sigur Ros, and it's really awesome. I just wanna say that this album is perfect, from the instuments, the lyrics, and everything, they really know how to make a good music. I really love this album. Well, enjoy it!!

Some background; In the past, as a solo project, Luis Cifre from Her Only Presence published 3 albums: "Ghost of the Year" (2005), "The Hurt Process" (2007) and "A Brand New Start" (2009). Also a Split CD: "Dreamville Sampler 002" with L.a, Twin Engine and The Marzipan Man. He also played on Primavera Club Festival 2007 and lots of shows during the last 5 years, including opening for Tricky at Bikini (Barcelona '08) or touring Spain with swedish songwriter Kristofer Astrom. In August '09 they toured Poland with Setting the Woods On Fire and Chasing the Sunshine and shared the stage with artists like Declan de Barra, Surrounded, Rivulets, Elephant Micah, Ainara LeGardon and L.a.
