Aztlan Underground, The Stains, La Bestia, Cara de Mil Putasos
By Jonny Whiteside
From the mid-1940s pachuco-boogie boom to the soul-garage glories of the mid-’60s and the following decade’s punk rock conflagration, East Los Angeles’ musicians have consistently set higher standards for America’s pop underworld. Theirs is an unrivaled and closely linked tribe, and with each generation informing and expanding upon the forebears’ achievements, the fast-moving Eastside scene always demands — yet is too rarely accorded — close attention. Between the tense, explosive punk of chronically superb hell-raisers the Stains, the intense sound of Rocio Ponce and Rudy Brat’s La Bestia and the fearsome, brain-pulping metallics of untamed duo Cara de Mil Putazos, expect a vortex of unimpinged creativity and old-school slam. Nicely tempered by the more pacific (but no less pointed) sociocultural observations of Aztlan Underground, not to mention screenings of several rare punk rock documentaries, this should be a swarming, sincere and altogether intoxicating affair.
