Synthesis Band You’ve Never Heard Of…OF THE DAY!!!111 – La Plebe

So the thing that probably sucks about being in a punk band with horns and singing in Spanish is that no matter what, people are always gonna have to talk about Voodoo Glow Skulls. But though today’s Synthesis Band You’ve Never Heard Of…OF THE DAY!!!111, San Francisco’s La Plebe, doubtlessly owe something of a debt to the venerable VGS, they are definitely doing their own thing. For one thing, ALL of La Plebe’s songs are in Spanish. And if anything, musically La Plebe sound more like Less Than Jake than they do VGS; their songs are for the most part pleasantly mid-tempo and straight forward, even if I have no idea what the fuck they’re saying. But don’t just listen to me, if you’d like to personally compare the two, and live in the Northern California area, you shall soon have your chance as La Plebe and Voodoo Glow Skulls are playing together not once, but TWICE in the next couple weeks:

I had the chance to check the band out live this past weekend right here in good ol’ Chico, CA and let me tell you what, better bring your fucking skanking shoes because the dudes on the horns can BLOW. Check out the band on their Myspace and DO NOT hesitate to get them to come to your godforsaken town.
