I'm totally thrilled with this new band Los Abandoned. I bought their CD and have been listening to it non-stop. It's got the perfect mix of poppy new wave and power pop, Latino and Anglo. This band shines with the beauty of cross cultural pollination. This is the reason I became a pocho in the first place. I've never heard Spanglish sound so hooky.

Here's the video for Van Nuys Es Very Nice. I think she's reading Ingles Por Dummies.

I just got the CD too (I had mixtape already). I need to listen to it a lot more, but I definitely like it. I'm still sad I missed them opening up for Los Liquits last August. I flew in late from Oakland. Damn travelling.

Damn, I haven't read your blog in a while, how did I miss this?! N'hombre, you should check out Los Abandoned live, they rock. They've come to Osten a few times and played with Maneja Beto...killer hooks.
