Description
It turns out that mid-'90s American bands like 311, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Zebrahead--yeah...remember them?--weren't fusing alternative rock, ska and zany hip-hop flows in a vacuum. Down in Mexico City, a rock en espanol band called Molotov were busy rejecting the conventions that had made Mana a global phenomenon. Penning bombastic tunes that melded rap and punk, Molotov openly took aim at government corruption. More than 20 years later, Molotov are still making music. They headline this weekend's La Tocada Fest along with El Tri, Mago de Oz, Panteon Rococo, Angeles del Infierno and Maldita Vecindad.
