Review
From its first notes, this album cuts out a new, abrasive sound that has been dubbed "punk salsa." That may be a bit too strong--these guys are way beyond the garage stage when it comes to playing--but the band's blend of hot horns, tropical rhythms, dirty electric guitar lines, weird keyboard riffs, and shouting, exuberant vocals is certainly unlike anything on the normal salsa-merengue scene. One of Mexico City's very few salsa outfits, the band (its name means "Those from Below," or "The Underclass") was formed by a group of philosophy students, and its lyrics are fiercely political. The music, though, is anything but didactic. It stretches the borders of salsa without ever failing to be powerfully danceable, and is one of the most exciting and outrageous debuts on the Latin scene in recent history. --Elijah Wald
