Los Llamaradas are really good. That's the only band I have heard. This is only coming from one cd though.

GravitySlips 12.05.2008 04:02 AM

i've only heard Clockcleaner and Sic Alps. I dig them both. Moreso Sic Alps.

atsonicpark 12.05.2008 06:32 AM

U.S. Ez is a great album. Clockcleaner has their moments. Los Llamaradas are really good. That's all I've got thus far.

Love the Sic Alps record. Heard good things about Fabulous Diamonds, must check into that shit. Other than that, I drew a blank on the rest of that list you obscure bastard.

toxic johnny 12.05.2008 08:54 AM

I really like Fabulous Diamonds and Sic Alps... need to check out the rest... may have heard the Crystals one, but not sure. If so can't have left a lasting impression...

afterthefact 12.05.2008 08:56 AM

My opinion is that I have only heard of three of these bands.

Come to think of it, that is a fact.

whorefrost 12.05.2008 09:08 AM

so what is yr opinion after this fact?

RdTv 12.05.2008 09:43 AM

I like drunkdriver and los llamarada. I might like some of the others but I have yet to hear from them.

My opinion is that I should learn to differenciate between opinions and facts.

Or maybe that is a fact?

Magic Lantern: probably the band of the year for me. great psych band from long beach, ca. amazing on record, amazing live. if you have a chance to see them, DO IT!

Tunnels -really great droney stuff. his other band eternal tapestry are amazing too

demonrail666 12.06.2008 05:25 AM

I feel particular ashamed to say that I've not even heard of any of these bands, let alone actually heard them.

toxic johnny 12.07.2008 06:26 AM

I'm listening to Los Llamarada now and am digging it/them a lot...
a lot.

sarramkrop 12.07.2008 06:40 AM

The ep which the avant label put out recently is great. The new record, 'Take The Sky', is just fantastic, though. I'm not sure which songs are my favourite on it, 'the miracle sleep' and 'stressa closer' are close contenders. The whole record reminded me of SY at the peak of their powers.

toxic johnny 12.07.2008 07:02 AM

I'm listening to Soundliketrains which is available for free download here... it's very crunchy and lo-fi and as far as I can gather it's a compilation of material from 2002 to 2004. Not sure how representative it is of their current sound... I'll investigate the new one and report back.

Anyone know of any other Mexican bands worth checking out?

Blank Dogs/Sic Alps is my favorite thing there. Chippendale is the gnarliest musician alive, and despire every Black Pus album being pretty much the same, its always great.

batreleaser 12.09.2008 10:00 AM

I love Drunkdriver too though, they've really impressed me.
