The Town and the City
:Album Description:The 13-track set--fittingly, the disc is the 13th studio album of the band's 30-year-plus career--was recorded over the last several months, with the band doing its own production work. Tchad Blake, who's worked with the group for many of its past albums, handled mixing duties. The album partially reflects the East Los Angeles roots-rockers' experience as de facto immigrants in their own country, as well as unease with the current political situation in the land. The band is currently on an open-ended touring schedule, ...

From Dusk Till Dawn: Music From The Motion Picture
:Album Description:Vinyl Classics reissue of the soundtrack to the hit 1996 film. The CD looks like vinyl, and includes slipcase. Columbia. 2004. :Quentin Tarantino's trash-talking original soundtrack is fuelled by a greasy Tex-Mex theme. Starting with the Blasters classic 'Dark Night,' this album rumbles like a gang of renegade vampire bikers through a sharp new one from ZZ Top ('She's Just Killing Me'), a classy Jimmy Vaughan blooze ('Dengue Woman Blues'), an outrageous vignette by Cheech Marin, a couple of vintage Stevie Ray sides, and ...

Sí
: :It's a bit jarring to see Mexican alt-rockera Julieta Venegas posed demurely in a wedding dress, against a pink background, on the cover of Si. Inside, the 10-track disc reflects the sugary switch, offering sweet pop arrangements and wide-eyed musings on love. Venegas' last two albums, Aqui and Bueninvento, were moodier, more introspective affairs. Savvy marketing move? Maybe, but it's given Venegas the most successful, most accessible album of her career thus far. Si is an irresistible valentine of an album, anchored by Venegas' heartfelt ...

All Good Things
: : The Latin-alternative stylings of Pacha Massive aren't easy to classify, and that's a wonderful thing. The duo--Dominican-born Nova (keys/guitar) and Colombian-born Maya (bass)--is part of the same quirky soundscape that includes Orishas, Kinky, and Plastilina Mosh. In fact, Pacha's win at the Latin Alternative Music Conference Battle of the Bands puts them in the championship company of Kinky and Los Abandoned. But Pacha Massive's Bronx-based, bilingual sound is all its own. Trippy loops collide with Colombian cumbia, Dominican palo, reggae, and dancehall. It's an ...
