{I know it must have seemed like I just retired after that Minutemen tribute, but I’ve just been insanely busy with the start of this new semester teaching at Long Beach. Things have calmed down, so her comes the flood of posts to catch us back up}
Quite a number of retro-styled bands around these days that if you didn’t do your due diligence, you’d mistake them for the “real” thing. Los Hacheros are a latin combo out of New York with a fantastic sound that draws upon some old-school styles ala Arsenio Rodriguez. It’s that guitar sound that really makes you pay attention but once you get into everything Los Hacheros have to offer, you can easily see why Daptone swooped them up.
