A tornado and its three musketeers are causing chaos… It’s Pipi Tornado with SANTA CANTINA – and you need to hear this now! Review.

SANTA CANTINA – PIPI TORNADO

The Montpellier-based band Pipi Tornado truly lives up to its name – SANTA CANTINA, their latest EP, bursts in with all the energy of a storm. Full of humour, raw honesty, and a whirlwind of diverse influences, the quartet crashes in with TWISTA. Their bluesy rock sound swings between classic and modern, and the flow of lead singer Mélo – right at the eye of the storm – is instantly gripping. The rest of the EP slides smoothly between styles, always maintaining the band’s explosive energy. KILL THE LOBSTER follows with a seriously catchy vibe. Here, we get to explore more of Mélo’s vocal textures – and it’s an instant favourite!

With WHISKEY SOUND, they dive into a hardcore foundation paired with a pub-rock chorus with Irish hints – festive, punchy, and full of life. The band’s sense of humour is obvious, but they’re also capable of more mysterious, serious tones. That mood pulses through the suspenseful PRAYER OF THE SEQUOIA, and gives an extra shine to the breezy rockabilly vibe of UNCLE MYERS. For me, that ability to switch things up while still keeping everything cohesive is a huge strength. Add to that sharp production and clear technical skills – and it’s very good news for what’s next for this band.

Pipi Tornado closes SANTA CANTINA with a truly epic final track. MOUNI MOUNI brings a mystical atmosphere, heavy riffs, and a clear, expressive vocal line that sends chills down your spine. Like a chiaroscuro painting, it completely drew me in. Another favourite, and a stunning conclusion to the EP. At once tender and violent, Pipi Tornado’s rock is something you need to discover, urgently!
