​
The Lürxx released their new single "We are the Weeds" - on April 05 2024. Igniting the spirit of '80s arena rock, this song is a high-voltage anthem of defiance and optimism. With a chorus that begs to be belted out, it's a fist-pumping ode to the resilience of weeds. It's a track brimming with energy and a rebellious attitude, celebrating the unyielding power of nature's underdogs. It's a rallying cry for the wild and untamed, a reminder that even in the cracks of life, hope can bloom.
The song was mixed and mastered by James Michael of Sixx:A.M., who also accompanied the band during the recording process. Michael, who has worked with artists such as Mötley Crüe, Papa Roach, Meat Loaf and Halestorm, praised the band for their "light-hearted but serious" approach to music and their "exciting passion and rawness".

Biography
The Lürxx play Nature Warrior Rock: philosophically rooted in anti-speciesism and radical optimism, projecting positive activism and promoting our oneness with nature, their music is energetic and unusual, sometimes performed with a full rock line-up, sometimes unplugged.
With recorder solos (!), vocals impassioned by unexpected and relevant lyrics, topped with face paint, the Lürxx showcase an experimental mindset and roots tapping into the protest songs of the 1960s and into 70s punk, when music was at the forefront of societal change. They are the powerful soundtrack to the revolution desperately needed to save our planet!
Imagine Ziggy Stardust performing with Twisted Sister singing T.Rex's "The Children of the Revolution" and you get an idea of what the Lürxx sound like. Only with more eels!
Xavi and Sabú have been together for 33 years (first love!), writing songs together since they were 13.
Upon their emigration to Hollywood in 1996, as 18 year old illegal immigrant high school drop-outs, they initially lived on the streets, like a scruffy guerrilla version of the Rock’n’Roll dream, and were eventually adopted by the remnants of the 80’s Sunset Strip glam rock scene.
After some years as full-time musicians, they returned to school and later to uni, studying Latin (Sabú & Xavi) and Environmental Sciences (Xavi). After a 22-year hiatus, they got the band back together in 2020 and are ready to change the world with their music! They are currently working on their new project "Second Chancers" on which they collaborate with mixer James Michael of Sixx:A.M.

What should a punk band sound like in this era? I think this track (We are the Weeds) has the answer. A raw sound with a lot of melody. And that duality makes the song more hypnotic. It kind of transits the whole time between that acoustic guitar and the distortion. The vocals are the punk part that's all over the track. But it has arrangements in the chorus especially that gives it a movie epicness. - Chavo Ruiz, Podcaster - Musicalizador - Curador, Argentina

Lots of talent, perfect studio work. (...) I like the groove of the song (We are the Weeds) and its structure. I like the shouting voice, it's a breath of fresh air (...) I love the vocals and the distortion of the song. The melody stays in our heads. - Ti-Guy, Radio host, France

“Music for the Planet” es una celebración de la música rock hecha a mano y de la sencillez sin pretensiones.
El disco cuenta una historia de belleza y esperanza, de lucha y victoria, de amor y la increíble maravilla de la naturaleza." - Dequeruza, Argentinia
​
"They’re not afraid to tackle subjects that you don’t normally find in rock songs, and their dedication to numerous wildlife species and the man-made plights they face gets the message in the listener’s face. (...) “Part Of It All,” the disc’s closing track, does feel like they’re able to pull together all the stories told in the other songs and focus them into one laser-sharp point. (...) To tackle songs about eels, ducks and true environmental warriors, and not have them come off as preachy? Now that’s a challenge, and they rose to it very well." - Christopher Thelen, The Daily Vault, USA
"The Lürxx undoubtedly have their own thing going [...], in everything from vocal tone to topic and [...] multi-layered arrangements. Rebels is a stunning opener, but it’s still merely a glimpse of the depth on display throughout Music For The Planet." - Stereo Stickman, UK
