Reviewed 2006-01-12
Polished, upbeat, drunk punk with horns/ska-punk. Local SF. Bilingual band, half the songs are in english, half in spanish. Most songs are fast. Vocals have some shout/growl, very clear recording, everyone plays intsruments cleanly. Lyrics are poetic for a punk band. While CD is labeled "mariachi punk", the horns bring the sound closer to ska-punk, not mariachi. A couple stray FCC's in english and spanish, none used in an obscene way. All songs are fun, with feelings of unity and camraderie. Check out the "Dirty Old Town" cover.

1) No Vocals. guitar intro. horn-punk 0:48
2) FCC? All spanish. about woman who kills abusive husband. "pinche" sung. 1:46
3) FCC. Happy song about the SF scene, drugs, and living life without a care. "fuckin" sung once in spanish and english. 1:47
4) Less frenetic feel. Vocals not shouted. About coming to understand parents. 1:48
5) FCC. Cover of "Dirty Old Town". Starts out slow country. Breaks into churning punk rock. Reprised first chorus
sung over bare acoustic guitar. Shouted end. "fuckin" sung once. 2:56
6) FCC. Fast protest song in english. 2 "fucks" 1:44
7) In Spanish. Nice, delicate guitar riff intro. About giving one's life to social struggle. 1:47
8) NOT THE BAND. A clip from a spanish movie, with strains of mariachi at the end. 0:22
9) FCC. Happy, raucous punk song about drinking. 2 "fucks". 1:33
