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.

whorefrost · 12.05.2008, 08:40 AM

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?

dntrecords · 12.06.2008, 12:18 AM

your list almost seems like it's coming from my website, haha.

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

Black Pus -great drums/keyboards/whatever. drummer from lightning bolt

Twin Crystals - vancouver b.c. 3 piece no wavey electro band. great.

Los Llamarda- could've fit in in the ny no wave scene. great band from monterey, mexico. they were great live when I saw them last month

Decayed Rhapsody · 12.06.2008, 12:38 AM

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.

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.
