Man, what a pleasant surprise to find some of you actually know AND like this band. Larry i suppose doesn't surprise me as much, with them being kinda big in other latin american countries...
I've seen them three times live, but none before their reunion. I missed them with what i think was their best lineup, during the Fabulosos Calavera/Marcha del Golaso Solitario era. They had who i believe to be one of the top guitarists in argentina currently, Ariel Minimal.
What i really really like about them is that, as is the case with janes/porno, once you start digging a little bit you'll find a really big and rich spectrum of related acts, in which the members either participated as projects or created during their time apart.
For instance their saxophone player, Sergio Rotman, started three really interesting bands, Cienfuegos, Mimi Maura and El Siempreterno.
Cienfuegos:
Mimi Maura is the band he started with his wife, singer Mimi Maura
:He then created very recently, a punk/postpunk band with many cadillac members, including their drummer and former guitarist Ariel Minimal, called El Siempreterno:
Flavio, bass player and driving force behind LFC, made a ridiculous amount of records outside the band, ranging from an album with one of the godfathers of argentine metal, Ricardo Iorio of Almafuerte to other rythms and styles that go from reggae and ska, to Urugayan Murga and even rockabilly/surf rock:
(the kid on drums is his son Astor)
Singer Vicentico also made a handful of albums but he's a bit of a douche so i won't even bother making this post longer with any of his songs.
Ariel Minimal, who as i said is one of my favorite guitarists, has made a bunch of indie/folk records, and most notably has a hard rock/prog band called Pez. They kick serious ass:
hope you guys enjoy
Agreed! Like I said earlier, I was really disappointed he wasn't a part of the reunion.
