TURMOIL - THE PROCESS OF... (1999)
To this day, I'm still perplexed at how little attention Turmoil received during their late '90s run. To me, they're still one of my top 5 hardcore bands ever.

EL SOL EXPLOTA!
Me recuerda un poco a Helmet pero no tan pesado. Los vi en vivo con Glassjaw y el batero es excelente.

SALSA GORDA
Orquesta el Macabeo - Salsa Macabra (2010)
Puerto Rico old school salsa (salsa gorda) revival orchestra debut album. A combination of Latin rhythms such as guaracha, son and mambo. Mixed with the irreverence attitude of the great salsa performers.
Orquesta el Macabeo is the hottest salsa band from Puerto Rico since the beloved “Salsa Gorda” was silenced in the eighties by the romantic salsa genre. This revival of original salsa came from the least expected place; the underground music scene. Most of the musicians of this Orchestra come from hardcore/punk, ska, reggae and other types of music that are not learned at music
Tracks:
1 Charlatán
2 La noche
3 Macabiónico
4 Se Pone Difícil
5 Swing
6 La Culpa
7 Supermercado

DOWN - DIARY OF A MAD BAND (2006)
I love him & I hate him, but I can't live without him. He's said some pretty boneheaded things in the past and done some that are even stupider. But there's a lot to say about his honesty and his musical talent. Being the sole frontman of 2 bands like Pantera & the mighty Down says a lot about the man and it's all I really care about. This is from Down, it's from 2006 and it's live. I've read around a lot about how Phil's voice sounds like crap in this recording. You know what? It's still official live Down material. Enjoy!

JOHN GARCIA PLAYS KYUSS: LIVE AT ROADBURN (2010)
Another Mofongo exclusive. It's a bootleg but it sounds pretty good. With Soundgarden & Faith No More reuniting, one can only hope that a Kyuss reunion is closer. Until then, hearing John belt out the classics with a worthy backup band will have to do. This one's mixed and chopped.

OPEN HAND - HONEY (2010)
The direction these guys took with "You & Me" didn't upset me at all. This one feels like the natural progression from that album and it's way long overdue.

Happy 2010! Burton C. Bell lends his vocal-style to yet another interesting project. The man knows how to use his gift.

GREASEY MELLA TRANCE (2002)
I collected these tracks over the years (long, long time ago; like way back when Napster was the way. '99? Dang! That was 10 years ago?). I was never that much into club music (I found it somewhat devoid of feeling, unless under the right circumstances), but I did go out a lot. These are songs I remember getting really into back then. These songs do share the common thread of getting stuck in my brain while I was high on E.
So yeah, house & trance are not my usual cup of tea, but this is my E mixtape; and it takes me back! Back to a time of girl juggling and drug taking. I'm glad that changed. :P
iTunes/Zune ready.

THE REVOLUTION SMILE - SUMMER EVER (2006)
Pure sonic bliss. Harmonies are tighter than on their 2003 release, "Above the Noise", but there's some filler on this one. "Are You Awake?" and " I Was a Werewolf" are well worth your downloading time, though. Maybe even a few bucks if you likey enough, ya cheap basterds!!!

WINGER - KARMA (2009)
If you thought even for a second that I'd post this, you either haven't been here before or you're a fag. Either way, do us all a favor and kill yourself. You're only exempt if you wanted to hear this to laugh all the way through it.
In his own words: the man, the myth, the douchebag: Kip Winger
"Our band was known to musicians, and a lot of musicians showed up to see me play; watching, trying to figure out how I'm playing. We were like the 'hair band' [version of] Dream Theater. That is why it's the great irony that we ended up on that geeky guy's shirt on Beavis & Butthead, because Metallica couldn't play what we play. They couldn't do it; they literally, technically couldn't do it. And I'll fucking challenge those chumps to that any day of the week, but we could play their music with our hands tied behind our back. And so, I was a little t'd off about that, but in the end, none of that shit matters..." -Kip Winger-
He reminds me of that cover band, 40-year old guitar player who can't figure out why he's not famous. Being technically good is nice, but good songwriting goes a long way, Kippy.
