MOSTROS
Feed the Rockin' Soul
Flying Peluca

________________________________________________________

Mostros are from Spain, and pretty much everything written about them is in Spanish (naturally), so I cannot fill you in on a whole lot here, besides the obvious. For example, the lead singer is quite foxy, and she belts out their punky rock n’ roll tunes with all the snot n’ swagger of Hurricane Jenny from the Midnight Creeps, sometimes even in pseudo-English. The guitar dude wails on his bad-axe like it breathes fire and smites his enemies for him, and the songs themselves are part New York Dolls and part cocaine-fried garage-rock rave-up, the kind of sweaty, midnight glam-slam people bring guns to, and then drink until firing them off in the parking lot seems like a good idea. Rock n’ roll, in other words. If yr looking for the best songs, well those’d be “The King of Blood Hotel”, for the reason I just explained, and “The Year of the Snake”, because that’s what I’m praying like hell 2006 will be.

And if you need to know anything else, go ask your Spanish teacher. ________________________________________________________
