I'm loving this. Perfect album to have on while I sip my morning coffee and catch up on some internet reading. It sounds oddly familiar yet at the same time completely new. I can't quite place who this album reminds me of.. Anyway great pick!

You’ve definitely got my attention King Daddy!We need @NathanRicaud to chime in on this Herbert Record, cause I’m close to calling it sexy myself.

Happy Labor Day everybody! Even though it's a
holiday weekend, the Listening Club never rests... Our next selection will be announced soon, chosen by @ThePakoBuelna
I hope it's Avalancha De Éxitos by Café Tacvba, because "Alármala de tos" is a motherfuckingamazing song and I have a lot of things to say about it.
Me too. I just got back from vacation. I’m behind on everything.I'm behind! @debianlinux I promise I will listen to yours!
So this has completely change the feeling of my commute through the canyons on my way to work. Really digging the Spaghetti Western sound track section of the album. Even though I don't understand the dialogue it really adds to the music just hearing it.
Just when I'm getting to work is when there is the abrupt change in tone starts. More of the Mexican/Rockabilly vibe.
I'll admit that I have a little confusion over Mexican musical genres. Is a song like Dorotero Arango considered Norteno music? That accordion! And whats the difference between those big brass bands with the flashy suits on Sabadao Gigante (RIP) and Los Tigres-Juala De Oro and all the music on the Los Lobos Album-La Pistola y el Corozon. Are any of these genres related to corridos/narco-corridos?
@ThePakoBuelna
Don't know much about Los Lobos but they are mostly Rock/Southern Rock no?
gotye had massive success after this, and - from memory - this was his side-project from being the drummer in the basics
wally de backer is a super talented dude who knows how to pull interesting sound together
this, his debut, always reminded me a lot of decoder ring
