Has anybody else out there listened to this band? Will the Wolf Survive is the best album I've bought in a long time. There is something on the album for everyone. Try and give this one a listen. Apparently (from an article in rolling stone) they acquired their current sound after opening for John Lydon (sp, formerly Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols) and getting violently booed off stage. The band then changed from playing traditional mexican music to a more energetic mixture of traditional and punk styles. I missed them the last time they played the bay area, and I'm wondering how they are live and if they'll be playing up this way any time soon.
