It is with mucho gusto that Slovenly Recordings
presents this debut long playing 12” bruiser
by LOS VIGILANTES, from San Juan, Puerto Rico!
Following up their incredible “Mi Mami Dijo”
45 (Slovenly, tambien!), and an appearance on
NORTON RECORDS’ “Their Hispanic Majesties
Request” double 7” compilation, Los Vigilantes
tear it up with 14 original tracks of juvenile
delinquent garage-punk smashers! Heavy on the
60s side with a healthy dose of droopy 50s doo-
wop back-up vocals, every song here kills with
melodious culo shaking anthems lead by a super-
tough vox, todo en Espanol. The band is fully
swinging and brash with organs, human whistles, and
backwards tape loops (”Eres Tu” cleverly sounding
like a chant of “LSD!”) creeping in and out, bringing a
stunning sunshine switchblade meltdown of King Khan
& BBQ Show meeting obscuro early 80s Spanish punk
cretins Siniestro Total. As part of a close-knit Puerto
Rican punk/ garage scene, Vigilante Jorge Mundo
(aka Jota) filled in for Davila 666’s lead guitarist on their
maiden European voyage, and played lead guitar on their
latest LP “Tan Bajo” (IN THE RED). Make sure and
dig the video for this album’s killer lead-off track “Ven
Vamos,” which was directed by PR videographers
Puro Vicio. This LP is gonna be THEE cerveza guzzling
party platter of the summer. Pa gozar, PUNK!
